I'm trying to set up a new Mac for gnus, but I can't send messages. When
I try, I get these messages:
Sending via mail...

I tried running gnutls-cli (installed via homebrew) from the command
line, and got this:
% gnutls-cli --insecure -p 80 smtps-proxy.messagingengine.com
Processed 0 CA certificate(s).

port 80? Why is that? try without the -p 80

These identical settings work on my other Macs. Fastmail has these
servers set up to get around firewalls that block outgoing connections
to certain ports.

Thank you.

So I tried it without port 80, as Gijs suggested, and it did
work. Thank you, Gijs!
However, on three other Macs, it worked perfectly *with* port 80
specified. I originally started using this to get around a firewall at
work that blocked outgoing SMTP, as suggested here:
https://www.fastmail.com/help/technical/servernamesandports.html
Now it appears my new office has some other firewall weirdness going
on. This call failed with -p 80, but worked without it. However, from
home, it worked on the same Mac *with* -p 80. I'm trying to get to the
bottom of this, as I'd like to use the same settings everywhere.
Thanks,
