RESOLVED: Problem with STARTTLS - SSL routines:SSL23_GET_SERVER_HELLO:unknown pr

Hi,

I've some problems connecting to my mailserver using STARTTLS.

I've done a simple test:
openssl s_client -starttls smtp -crlf -connect my.domain.com:25
Loading 'screen' into random state - done
CONNECTED(00000768)
11128:error:140770FC:SSL routines:SSL23_GET_SERVER_HELLO:unknown protocol:.\ssl\s23_clnt.c:583:

Weird, because i should receive something like:
CONNECTED(00000768)
depth=0 /C=US/ST=Unknown/L=Unknown/O=Unknown/... etc?
right?

I've a "self made" servercert.pem at /var/qmail/control/

What whould i do to resolve this problem?

Tx,

Jcalegre
 
I've copyed my psa certfile from (/usr/local/psa/var/certificates/) to servercert2.pem (/var/qmail/control/) and then:

$ cp servercert2.pem servercert.pem
..changed the owners/groups...
$ chown root:nofiles servercert.pem
$ chmod 640 servercert.pem

$ cp servercert.pem clientcert.pem
..changed the owners/groups...
$ chown root:qmail clientcert.pem
$ chmod 640 clientcert.pem

working now..

I hope!
