>Here are the two Auth statements:

>250-AUTH=LOGIN

Great, so it supports the right stuff.

>250-AUTH=LOGIN
>250-AUTH LOGIN PLAIN CRAM-MD5
>250 EHLO

Very odd... I also use SIMS so I know it works fine with the SMTP Auth 
version of Emailer. But that isn't even remotely what I got from the 
outside. This is what I get:

iMac:~ chrisbartlett$ telnet bigbrother.pecandeluxe.com 25

I'm guessing you are running some kind of outside SMTP proxy or mail 
forwarder that is intercepting the connection from me.

Makes sense, I can bet SIMS has NO idea what that username string is you 
are passing it (the one that works with Exchange).

I made the change maybe 2 or so weeks after I originally released the 
hack. I silently replaced the version on my web site with the corrected 
version. So if you downloaded it recently like you say, you should have 
the correct version. If in doubt, just redownload it. Or, open it with 
ResEdit and check STR# 3400 Entry #8. It should say EHLO (normal Emailer 
is HELO).

I'll reach out to an Exhange using buddy and see what he has to say about 
the way it handles log ons. I'm going to still guess the string you are 
using as the username is needlessly complex. Maybe my friend can shed 
some light on a better way to gain access.
