Right, now I got then

> service lmtp {
>   unix_listener lmtp {
>     #mode = 0666

>
>   inet_listener lmtp {

and [ msmtp ] is connecting indeed. Does TLS/STARTTLS need to be added
to [ inet_listener lmtp ] in order to facilitate [ lmptps ]? If so what
is the syntax?

Right now this error comes up:

> msmtp: TLS handshake failed: The TLS connection was non-properly
> terminated.

> So what should be listening on port 262? Unix sockets are not tcp ports.
> You have lmtp as unix socket configured but want to access from remote via tcp socket? I think you need inet_listener instead of unix_ listener
