Another SMPT connect error

Replies: 0

I have an intranet WP site. We are using MS Exchange, and our CA is a our ow microsoft server. Unfortunately I cannot give access.

Email servers are working fine… I can connect to webmail and such in my browser.

I cannot get the WP Mail SMTP to connect though. My intranet site does not (yet) use SSL. My MSExchange servers do.

This is the relevant part of the debug log:
Connection failed. Error #2: stream_socket_enable_crypto(): SSL operation failed with code 1. OpenSSL Error messages:error:1416F086:SSL routines:tls_process_server_certificate:certificate verify failed [E:\www\*******\wp-includes\class-smtp.php line 374]

Any ideas what might be going on?
