OT Sendmail and Motorola smartphones

[Rabellino Sergio]

I think that the motorola client is failing the SSL handshake, and drop the connection to the smtps. double check the ca certificates on the client to be sure that the server cert is well known.
The sendmail error shown it's fired when the client breaks without sending anything on the smtp protocol...

hope this helps.
