Is anyone using hobbit to monitor smtps (secure smtp) ?
I am unable to get hobbit to use STARTTLS as I get this error message: Unspecified SSL error in SSL_connect to smtp (6400/tcp) on host xxx.xxx.xxx.xx: error:140770FC:SSL routines:SSL23_GET_SERVER_HELLO:unknown protocol
bb-hosts looks like this:
xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx hostname # smtps
and bb-services looks like this:
[smtps] send "mail\r\nquit\r\n" expect "220" options ssl,banner
No default port-number assignment for smtps - nonstandard according
to IANA port 25
any idea ?

The SMTP STARTTLS is not supported in Hobbit.
For availability, you should be able to just use plain "smtp" - since you will be talking plain SMTP until the client (i.e. Hobbit) issues the "STARTTLS" command. So you can test this type of server as if it were un-encrypted.
It would be nice to support STARTTLS - not only for SMTP, but also for some of the other protocols (POP3, IMAP come to mind). That would require some major surgery on the network testing code, though.
