Then why those host's server announce they do support FTPS Explicit? If they didn't FileZilla would not even attempt it. Additionally, the default is to use FTPS Explicit IF AVAILABLE. That means FileZilla fell for your server's lies.
I almost don't even know what to say to a response like that. FileZilla "fell for my server's lies" ?
Why are you acting as if I attacked FZ or something?
I love FileZilla and have been recommending it for many years, but the way users are treated and talked to here is an embarrassment.
Granted; occasionally a few users make ridiculous demands and claims here in the forums and a few don't even bother to read anything at all before posting, but that's no reason to treat ALL users like they're some kind of troll out to get you. Especially those of us who have always been respectful in the past and were only providing constructive feedback that could be beneficially expanded upon in a community discussion.
Some of the replies I've seen in the threads related to this topic (here and also in other threads) almost reek of angry defensive pride over something that might just simply be an unpopular decision.
Telling user's that their servers are "broken" and "lying" is just as bad as when we see users calling the new default setting a "bug" and stomping around like spoiled brats. Both are a bit sad, and neither are quite right.
My recent posts were only in the spirit of trying to provide some kind of constructive input and feedback but now even I'm feeling on the defensive and that's getting plain silly.
