Configuring email sending using TLS

Is there a way to configure an RBR850 to send email using TLS and port 587?   My ISP (Xfinity aka Comcast) won't accept unencrypted email and blocks port 25.   -- Thanks, Verne

This is not done on the Orbi. It depends what ports your mail server supports and then you configure your email program.
