If you are on Windows Server 2003, install https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/security/ms10-02... with /b:SP2QFE, otherwise your mail server may stop working. (Yes, installing https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/957047 should do this for you, but this is safer especially considering how Server 2003 don't use CBS servicing)

Thank you for mentioning this. I was really struggling to understand reasons for not dropping SSL3 much, much earlier.
I guess google's first move was to start identifying mail sent in cleartext with the unlocked red padlock symbol. That was in February 2016. This is stage 2.
This is not about SSLv3, this is about CBC ciphersuites. But yes I should mention that IBM Domino used to be SSLv3 only.
