I have an aging WinXP Embedded SP3 box (don't judge; We're in the process of deprecating it) which need to send email for status updates etc.
This used to use GMail but they're going to turn off support for insecure apps soon so we need a work around to resolve the issue in the short term. To that end, I've set up a ubuntu-linux-based postfix (v3.4.13) server and have tried to configure it to allow TLS v1.0 connections.
On newer (Windows 10 based machines) running the exact same client, they're able to successfully connect in and send email. For some reason though, the XP machine errors out.
Is there a setting I need to alter in postfix to allow these aged connections?
