TLS Encryption
Published (2009-12-03 08:48:39)
Hi, First of all I'd suggest you use Symantec Brightmail Gateway (SBG) instead of SMS SMTP 5. There's a difference between the key length of the certificate used to negotiate the TLS connection and the cipher used to encrypt the traffic. You are most probably referring to the cipher and in that case 168 bit key is one of the available options on SBG 8. Have a look at the SBG documentation for more details on TLS:...

The customer has Symantec internally for AV and the Suite price was very little price difference and gave them SBG.  On the Ironport side, they would have had to purchase extra licenses for AS and AV scanning, which was cost prohibitive.  The Ironport was desired for their email encryption, TLS and DLP functionality though.

Could it be that this problem came back in the recent release (8.0.3-11)? I see a lot of messages sitting in the delivery queue with 4xx SMTP error codes.

Hi Brentwood, What version of SBG are you running?  So we are talking about mail coming from the internet into comp.com correct? And is all this mail not coming in?  Are you sure the mx records for comp.com are pointing to the Brightmail Gateway?  And is comp.com set up as a local domain on the SBG? If you just telnet to port 25 on the Inbound Mail IP and send a test message in what do you see in...

Hi, I guess is the content of that file what matters, not the extension. Is there any way you can validate the content of that file to check if is UTF-8 compliant? You can maybe open that file with a text editor like TextPad and use the option "Save As" selecting UTF-8 as desired enconding and then try again. If that doesn't work and if attaching that file to this thread is not ...

No, becuase it will not let you use authentication from more than one server. When you remove a server, it removes the option of using the settings, so this is expected behaviour.

Correct, obviously we will be seeing the first hop's IP address all the time so that will not be useful but we will still be doing checks on the messages themselves and mathcing them up with known spam messages and doing a heursitic scan for suspected spam. Honestly it should work fine. What device will be in front of it, by the way?

You would need to set up a different sync entry for each domain. So you would put in the domain for the screen you are on, then save it and choose 'Add' again and put in the information for that domain.
