" Error: Greeting never received" problem

[JYC-99]

The version:
"nodemailer": "^1.3.4",

I just tried several different mail service but always have this issue. I turn ssl authentication on, the code is like:

ssl: true

or

secureConnection: true

I do not know what is the problem :(

Just experienced this as well.
Fixed using secureConnection: true and port: 465.

This usually happens when the server expects encrypted connection but you start out as plaintext. To connect to secure servers you should use the following setup (note the secure option):

var transporter = nodemailer.createTransport({
    host: 'localhost',
    port: 465,
    secure: true,
    auth: {
        user: 'username',
        pass: 'password'
    }
});
