ssl errors, and required to offer only tls(/ssl)?

[None]

I am often seeing this error message:
sendmail[23425]: STARTTLS=server, error: accept failed=0, SSL_error=1,
errno=0, retry=-1, relay=m68-112.mailgun.net [166.78.68.112]


And this error messages:
sendmail[76688]: STARTTLS: write error=syscall error (-1), errno=104,
get_error=error:00000000:lib(0):func(0):reason(0), retry=99, ssl_err=5

1. I am wondering if there is a clear html page where I can lookup what
these errors are.

2. I assume that in the smtp standard the option to fallback to the
plain connection is still mandatory?

Are there more errors for the same process?
Which LogLevel do you use?

mailgun is a #%$&@& wrt TLS: they configure weird requirements
and simply hang up if they don't "like" something.

You might want to update your sendmail version so you don't just
get errno= but also the textual representation.

On Linux 104 is:
/usr/include/asm-generic/errno.h:#define ECONNRESET 104 /* Connection reset by peer */

Was it ever?
