Hello fellow MTA users!
 
I am using the courier mta for pop3 and imap successfully.
The SSL and authentication appears to work just fine.
 
Now I want to use the esmtp also an I whant to avoid missuse of my
smtp service since I don't have that much bandwith.
 
When setting up the esmtp without authentication all works fine.
But it seams that there is a problem in the authentication part.
 
Im at a loss! I thought that since th pop and imap authentication
works esmtp should to! But no such luck.
 
What I do is I set the AUTH_REQUIRED=1 temporarily to make sure
the authentication procedure is forced. The client reply
"ERROR: Authentication required" and fails to deliver the mail.
This using a KMail client in KDE/Linux.
 
There is a esmtpd AND a esmtpd-ssl in my /etc/courier map.
How do these relate? Do I have to put all parameters in the esmtpd-ssl
variant or only the ones that differ from esmtpd?
 
Please advice! What do I look for? What is the difference
between esmtp and for instance imap authentication.
