5.5.15. Class ForwardStartTLSEncryption

The ForwardStartTLSEncryption class handles scenarios when the client can optionally request STARTTLS encryption. If the client sends a STARTTLS request, the client-side connection will use STARTTLS, and Zorp will forward the request to the server. If the server supports STARTTLS, the server-side connection will also use STARTTLS.
Warning

If the client does not send a STARTTLS request, the communication will not be encrypted at all. Both the client-Zorp and the Zorp-server connections will be unencrypted.
