Hello all!

I'm having an issue about plain SMTP auth.

Sometimes, I can see in exim's mainlog something like:

2006-05-11 17:35:17 Authentication failed for (onepc) [11.11.11.11]: 435 
Unable to authenticate at present: lookup of 
"user="[EMAIL PROTECTED], ou=mydomain.com, o=myorganization" 
pass=chimera 
ldap:///o=myorganization??sub?(mailID=myuser%40mydomain.com)" gave 
DEFER: failed to bind the LDAP connection to server 192.168.1.1:0 - LDAP 
error 49: Invalid credentials

The query used to authenticate each user is OK, so eventually any user 
during the day can send mail authenticating.

The thing that calls my attention is that "%40" instead the @ sign that 
appears in the log, because myuser%40mydomain.com is provided by the 
email client as the username to validate.

Is it possible that the email client is sending the string in a wrong 
charset ?

Any of you had this problem ?
Hints are welcome.
