• SMTP reason=sslv3 alert handshake failure, SSL_error=1

    From Alterego@VERT/ALTERANT to Digital Man on Monday, September 16, 2019 15:14:26
    Hey DM,

    I'm tracking an SMTP problem, which I'm not sure when it started.

    Whenever SBBS is sending outbound mail (I have an SMARTHOST that I use for all app sending mail out) - I've started noticing this from SBBS:

    In Sendmail:
    Sep 16 14:58:26 d-1-1 sendmail[792]: STARTTLS=server, error: accept failed=-1, reason=sslv3 alert handshake failure, SSL_error=1, errno=0, retry=-1, relay=d-1-2.ipv4.leenooks.vpn [10.1.3.12]
    Sep 16 14:58:26 d-1-1 sendmail[792]: x8G4wQ6S000792: d-1-2.ipv4.leenooks.vpn [10.1.3.12] did not issue MAIL/EXPN/VRFY/ETRN during connection to MTA-v4
    Sep 16 14:58:26 d-1-1 sendmail[793]: x8G4wQAj000793: from=<deon.george@bbs.REDACTED>, size=558, class=0, nrcpts=1, msgid=<5D7F166D.721@bbs.leenooks.net>, proto=ESMTP, daemon=MTA-v4, relay=d-1-2.ipv4.leenooks.

    In SBBS:
    9/16 14:58:26 mail 0059 SEND/TLS/TLS [mail.leenooks.vpn] WARNING 'Invalid server key agreement parameters' (-32) setting session active
    9/16 14:58:26 mail 0059 SEND connecting to port 25 on mail.leenooks.vpn [10.1.3.11]
    9/16 14:58:26 mail 0059 SEND message transfer complete (74 bytes, 4 lines)

    I've checked and my host is happily sending and receiving mail from the greater internet, so I'm thinking this is localised to SBBS.

    I have no specific SSL certs in use - so sendmail created them when it started: IE: openssl s_client -starttls smtp -crlf -connect 10.1.3.11:smtp shows: subject=/O=Sendmail/OU=Sendmail Server/CN=ebcd69a837d7/emailAddress=admin@ebcd69a837d7
    issuer=/O=Sendmail/OU=Sendmail Server/CN=ebcd69a837d7/emailAddress=admin@ebcd69a837d7

    Some ideas to what the problem might be?

    No immediate ideas. Deuce at irc.synchro.net may know (he added the TLS support).
