Description: msmtp: TLS handshake failed: the operation timed out

msmtp fails to connect with a standard postfix smtp server with the error message: msmtp: TLS handshake failed: the operation timed out

I found a solution: http://sourceforge.net/p/msmtp/mailman/message/32440857/
which is to build msmtp against openssl instead of gnutls. I can confirm that is works.

Maybe change PKGBUILD?
This task depends upon

Reason for closing:  Fixed
Additional comments about closing:  msmtp 1.6.3 appears to no longer have this issue

Can confirm; it was quite difficult to figure out what the problem was (does nobody use postfix these days?).

Upstream doesn't seem to prefer either openssl or gnutls, so changing the PKGBUILD would look sensible to me.

This appears to be fixed in 1.6.3.
