The recent thread about sending email with AWS.SMTP.Client reminded me I ne=
ed to finish working on a package I wrote a while ago that uses AWS.SMTP.Cl=
ient.  I have just been passing Server_Name =3D> "localhost", Port =3D> 25,=
 and Secure =3D> False to AWS.SMTP.Client.Initialize, to use a local mail r=
elay, and that has worked fine.

I'm now trying to get secure communication to my email account mailserver w=
orking (SSL on port 465).  Something deep in the bowels of AWS wants cert.p=
em to exist in the directory I run my program from, but it doesn't seem to =
be the cert.pem I retrieved from the mail server with openssl.

My program dies with:

raised AWS.SMTP.SERVER_ERROR : raised AWS.NET.SOCKET_ERROR : The requested =
data were not available.

immediately after reading the cert.pem file I fetched with openssl.

Has anyone ever got secure  and authenticated AWS.SMTP.Client working?  And=
 if so, how did you do it?
