ESMTPS, or Extended SMTP Secure, is an extension of the Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP) that adds a layer of security by using Transport Layer Security (TLS) to encrypt the communication between email servers. This ensures that email messages are transmitted securely and are less susceptible to interception or tampering. ESMTPS typically operates on port 587 or 465, providing a secure method for sending emails over the internet. It is widely used by email service providers to enhance the privacy and integrity of email communications.
All the protocols that end with S, (SMTPS,POP3S,ESMTPS,POP3S and HTTPS) use Security Socket Layer (SSL) encryption or Transport Layer Security (TLS) encryption to protect the contents of emails.
