Ok, well, on the one hand, great,  that certainly explains
        the problem, you must have ,587 in the g_smtp_port settings...
      And you must 'restart' surgemail after changing that to make
        it work....
      But, upgrading doesn't generally speaking, adjust any
        configuration settings...
      Time to examine the old ini*.rec files which exist for
        exactly this reason, lets see what the matching settings were a
        few days back..

        Now I'm REALLY confused. :-) 
         
        The "new" [6.1c-1] surgemail.ini contains the following
          entries: 
         
            g_smtp_delay_stamp "TRUE" 
            g_smtp_log_protocol "TRUE" 
            g_smtp_port "25, 587" 
            g_smtp_secure_port "465" 
         
        Note that entering 587 for g_smtp_portauth in 6.1c-1 and
          saving in the web interface does not result in a
          g_smtp_portauth entry in the .ini 
         
        compare to the saved .ini in 6.3.c2-2 that was not working:
        
         
            g_smtp_log_protocol "TRUE" 
            g_smtp_port "25" 
            g_smtp_portauth "587" 
            g_smtp_secure_port "465" 
         
        I had also tried adding 587 to the g_smtp_port field, but
          that did not help.

        The web interface works fine on https - I think that SSL
          err might have been a red herring. 
         
        So I downgraded to 6.1c-1 - the next previous version I
          found on 
ftp.netwinsite - and connections on port 587 are
          being accepted. I TOOK NO OTHER ACTION, no changes to
          surgemail.ini, and this email is being sent via port 587. 
 
         
        ?!?

          I'm not aware of any changes between those versions that
            would cause that.  It appears to 
          be the same version of SSL and I don't see any ssl
            changes from our end.  
           
          It may be an expired ssl certificate (try removing it so
            surgemail regenerates a new one) also try another email
            client to see if that helps. 
           
          Also check using https from a browser to the web
            interface to see if it is reporting anything unusual, it's
            the same protocol/library so it should give you the same
            problem. 
           
          As a last resort you may want to try downgrading to that
            previous build to see if that repairs the problem, let me
            know if you want me to investigate further directly after
            you've tried the above...

            I'm in a Panic. 
             
            I upgraded from 6.2c-1 to 6.3c2-2 Linux 64, and I can
              no longer receive connections on port 587. I MADE NO OTHER
              CHANGES. 
             
            The only pertinent entry I can find in the logs is in
              mail.err:

            I did not change the (self-signed) certificate at all -
              it would seem SM is requiring a new setting????
