With OpenSSL 1.0.1e-fips :

The webmail server of my ISP works like this: it uses only TLS1.0,
so no TLS1.1 or TLS1.2, but when with openssl s_client -connect
WEBMAIL:443 -tls1_2 the connection is automagically downgraded to
TLS1.0.  taxdisc does not do this. Taxdisc does not negotiate, so
the client must guess the desired protocol (SSL3 or TLS1.0) and use
that.

I do not know all details about TLS and downgrading rules but the
server seems broken to me.


It is clearly not supporting TLS at all. TLS mandates that endpoints
offer the highest TLS version they support, and the mutual highest is
used. SSLv3 is not on that scale of TLS 1.0+ versions.

Client implementations usually treat rejection of all TLS versions
down to 1.0 as a signal that SSL handshake is required instead, abort
and retry with SSLv3-only...

Indeed, but taxdisc supports both SSL3 _and_ TLS1.0 ...
Unfortunately, taxdisc (TLS1.0) and the client (TLS1.2) cannot negotiate to
use TLS1.0.

Although "openssl s_client -connect www.taxdisc.service.gov.uk:443 -tls1_2"
fails, the taxdisc server sends 7 bytes with value 0.
So the negotiation goes wrong, but the question remains what exactly
in the handshake is not understood or undefined.

Firefox knows how to deal with it and Squid not yet.

... for now anyway. Firefox will be dropping SSLv3 support Nov 25th.
