Implicit SSL FTP is not well standardized, so it's not surprising you're
finding issues. Some servers are set up on port 990 with stunnel, so it's
impossible to encrypt data traffic with those. Those servers do the
equivalent of --ftp-ssl-control. If you don't need the data traffic
encrypted, try adding that option. The best route would be to use explicit
SSL; since you already have the --ftp-ssl option, just change the ftps:// to
ftp:// and see what happens.
