Re: Scan to SSL is ESSENTIAL!!!! Dell xx65 series (and all other versions of the new generation) need this in their firmware now.

I had the same problem, but for googleaccounts there is a solution. See support.google.com/.../answer.py

I tried it and it works directly! Only for mails to google accounts. The important SMTP setting is (copied from googlesite):

If your device or application does not support SSL, connect to aspmx.l.google.com on port 25.
