One thought on “Which two actions should you perform?

  1. Using the encryption while sending the outgoing emails. SharePoint 2016 supports sending an email to SMTP servers that use STARTTLS connection encryption.

    There are couples of things required before setting at SharePoint.

    STARTTLS must be enabled on the SMTP server.
    The SMTP server must support the TLS 1.0, TLS 1.1, or TLS 1.2 protocol.
    SSL 2.0 and SSL 3.0 protocols are not supported.

    The SMTP server must have a server certificate installed.
    The server certificate must be valid. Typically, this means that the name of the server certificate must match the name of the SMTP server provided by SharePoint. The server certificate must also be issued by a certificate authority that is trusted by the SharePoint server.
    SharePoint must be configured to use SMTP connection encryption.
