The mail proxy module in nginx is designed to work with backend 
servers in trusted environment, and does not provide a direct way 
to establish SSL connections to backend servers.

If you want nginx to use SSL when connecting to backend servers, 
consider using an SSL tunnel to do so.  For example, you can make 
one with the stream module, see here for details:
