You need to install the program "starttls" or the program "gnutls".
The exact procedure for this depends on your system. Once you have
starttls installed, do
M-x customize-variable RET starttls-program
The description says:
The program to run in a subprocess to open an TLSv1 connection. Hide Rest
This program is used when the `starttls' command is used,
i.e. when `starttls-use-gnutls' is nil.
Hit "save permanently" when done and that's all.
If you install gnutls, you have to customize starttls-use-gnutls and
starttls-gnutls-program instead, through the same procedure.
