Outlook says "Your server does not support the connection encryption type you have specified"

Using SmarterMail 10.7, Outlook 2010 on Windows 7.
 
I am trying to get SMTP on SSL set up.  I followed the instructions here:  http://portal.smartertools.com/kb/a2671/configure-ssltls-to-secure-smartermail.aspx
 
There was a problem with the ISP not having port 465 open but I got that fixed.  I set up the port for SMTP SSL, and set the binding to the IP address.  Restarted everything as it asked.
 
In Outlook, I have the account set up with IMAP for incoming on 143, that works.  I set up outgoing as SMTP on 465 with SSL.  This account was previously working with port 25 without SSL, but I moved to a new location inside an ATT Uverse provider, and they block outgoing port 25 unless it is to their own email.
 
I get the error in the title from Outlook when I do Test Account Settings.
 
What else do I need to do to get this working?  Any help appreciated.
 
Thanks

Also, I double checked the certificate is valid, and redid the export to file.  It was just issued.  Restarted the service again.
 
In the Log Viewer I see this .Net exception, not sure what to do about it but maybe this helps?
 
Exception negotiating SSL certificate: System.NotSupportedException: The server mode SSL must use a certificate with the associated private key.

Okay, figured it out, admin didn't export the cert correctly.  This older post is the real way to do it, better than the kb link above.  http://forums.smartertools.com/threads/my-guide-to-secure-e-mail-with-smartermail.12000/
