            Bug ID: 318924
           Summary: KMail failed to write to socket when sending mail with
                    smtp server with SSL encryption
    Classification: Unclassified
           Product: kmail2
           Version: 4.10.2
          Platform: Ubuntu Packages
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: crypto

I have problems with KMail when I want to send a mail with a smtp server which
handles SSL encryption, a notification pops up saying that the transport
failed, and writing to socket failed.

I give a try with thunderbird and the same settings for the smtp server with
SSL and it works well. So the problem is with KMail or any related component
but I do not know where or what search to solve this issue.

The first time, I used the account wizard. The second time, I decided to
configure the smtp server manually after having removed it. So I have gone to
settings > Configure KMail > Accounts > sending tab > and I add the smtp server
with this settings : encryption SSL on port 465 (like thunderbird was set),
authentication plain, server requires authentication checked (with my correct
login/password). 

The smtp server is not my own server, so I do not have any access to the server
logs unfortunately. The owner is a well known french mail service : laposte.net

I run into this issue on both KDE 4.9.5 on Kubuntu 12.04 and on KDE 4.10.2 on
Kubuntu 13.04.


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Configure a smtp server with SSL encryption on port 465 with authentication
2.Send a mail with this smtp server

Actual Results:  
The mail is not sent, the transport and writing to the socket failed

Expected Results:  
The mail is sent !
