I want to set up authentication in exim so that users may only authenticate securely, to eliminate the possibility of passwords being passed in the clear. To this end, I have added the recommended line to my authenticators:

  server_advertise_condition = ${if eq{$tls_cipher}{}{0}{1}}

Works great, except it breaks Outlook Express Mac, which uses the tls_on_connect functionality. Outlook works fine if the LOGIN authenticator has no server_advertise_condition set, but breaks otherwise, claiming the server doesn't support authentication. Unfortunately, if I remove server_advertise_condition from from my LOGIN authenticator, other clients can then be set to authenticate in the clear, which I do not want.

Can anyone suggest a way to allow Outlook Express Mac clients to connect without offering the possibility of any unencrypted logins?

Thanks!
