Package: reportbug
Version: 4.12.3
Severity: normal

At the moment, reportbug only supports secure mail transfers through smtplib's
STARTTLS:

submit.py:372
                if smtptls:
                    conn.starttls()

Some SMTP servers, such as mail.gmx.com:465, use SMTP wrapped in a standard
TLS transport. Please add support for this.
