Specify the encryption to use, either 'ssl' or 'tls'. Any other

value reverts to plain SMTP. Default is the value of

`sendemail.smtpEncryption`.

Specify in what way encrypting begins for the SMTP connection.

Valid values are 'ssl' and 'tls'. Any other value reverts to plain
|

(unencrypted) SMTP, which defaults to port 25.
|
||||
Despite the names, both values will use the same newer version of TLS,
|
||||
but for historic reasons have these names. 'ssl' refers to "implicit"
|
||||
encryption (sometimes called SMTPS), that uses port 465 by default.
|
||||
'tls' refers to "explicit" encryption (often known as STARTTLS),
|
||||
that uses port 25 by default. Other ports might be used by the SMTP
|
||||
server, which are not the default. Commonly found alternative port for
|
||||
'tls' and unencrypted is 587. You need to check your provider's
|
||||
documentation or your server configuration to make sure
|
||||
for your own case. Default is the value of `sendemail.smtpEncryption`.
