Hello,

if "mail.sritch.com is the server you use, then it's because it doesn't
seem to support TLS, only SSLv2 and SSLv3 - and both of these are
disabled by default. You can enable it like this:

1. Quit Claws Mail.
2. Enter following two lines in your ~/.claws-mail/clawsrc, in the
   [Common] section:

gnutls_set_priority=1
gnutls_priority=NORMAL

That should get you going again. Please note that this is just a
workaround, you should really talk to whoever is managing that mail
server, and get them to update the software to support TLS.

Regards,
