The result?
The connection issued by ASSP comes from 127.0.0.1 which is an
authorized address, for obvious reasons. As a consequences james answer
to isAuthorized() is Yes, which causes it not to display the 250 auth
login message and therefore causes thunderbird not to use auth.
I though

Yes, of course I actually fixed the problem for me by commenting this
line since this exact server doesn't really need to allow localhost to
send mail. However I think it would be a nice addition to have an option
to force always showing the AUTH capability. I am not familiar with
james source
But wouldn't it be totally equivalent to commenting out such option?

No it wouldn't. Imagine I would like to send mail from localhost without
authentication? I just can't. At this point I have to chose between
authentication working through a local proxy or allowing localhost to
send mail.

You asked for authentication to be required for localhost, you can't ask
for it not to be required at the same time!

Let me explain :-)
I don't want to _require_ authentication. I want it to be a possibility.
What I would like is:
a) be able to send a mail from localhost without authentication
b) be able to send a mail from localhost (precisely from a
spam-filtering proxy such as ASSP) _with_ authentication.

As I understood it advertising AUTH supported is equivalet to requiring
auth, are you
