From the PC with the problem, I was able to telnet to the server by both domain name and IP address
(mail.js-x.com - 208.109.162.164)
telnet to port 110 shows the response, and port 465 shows the blank response.

This is the message that I get from outlook on the working PC:

The server you are connected to is using a security certificate that could not be verified.

A certificate chain processed, but terminated in a root certificate which is not trusted by the trust provider

Do you want to continue using this server?

After I say "YES" then it will work.

When I did the telnet to port 465 I saw in the maillog this:
Code:
May 28 16:46:44 ip-208-109-162-164 postfix/smtpd[976]: warning: 208.66.144.10: hostname h10-208-66-144.mesh.net verification failed: Name or service not known
May 28 16:46:44 ip-208-109-162-164 postfix/smtpd[976]: connect from unknown[208.66.144.10]
May 28 16:46:44 ip-208-109-162-164 postfix/smtpd[976]: setting up TLS connection from unknown[208.66.144.10]
May 28 16:46:44 ip-208-109-162-164 postfix/smtpd[976]: SSL_accept error from unknown[208.66.144.10]: -1
May 28 16:46:44 ip-208-109-162-164 postfix/smtpd[976]: lost connection after CONNECT from unknown[208.66.144.10]
May 28 16:46:44 ip-208-109-162-164 postfix/smtpd[976]: disconnect from unknown[208.66.144.10]
So it looks like the net-connection is there, just that the windows-OS is preventing it to access this 'un'-trusted certificate/site.

Has anyone successfully connected to the SSL(port 465 in my case)?
-OR-
Does anyone know what some versions of Windows are doing?
-Maybe there is a setting somewhere that says - don't trust, and don't ask...

Thanks again for the thoughts and help
