SSL23_GET_SERVER_HELLO:unknown protocol [connectio

I am trying to send email when a new user registrates or forgot his password. I am working on a linux and the app was developed with node.js.

Error:

Configuration:

var smtp = {
  host: "server.stestmail.local",
  secureConnection: true,
  port: 587,
  requiresAuth: false,
  domains: ["stestmail.com"],
  auth: {
    user: "anyuser@stestmail.com",
    pass: ""
  }

I don't know why I get that error.

If you connect to msa (587) or smtp (25) port then DO NOT set secureConnection to true.

Your code with secureConnection set to true tries to start SSL negotiation at once but the other side gives you unencrypted SMTP greeting.

secureConnection - use SSL (default is false, not needed with service). If you're using port 587 then keep secureConnection false, since the connection is started in insecure plain text mode and only later upgraded with STARTTLS
