Hello, I'm using Exim4 to pass mail from Mutt to the campus mail server.
The mail server requires authentication for off-campus email addresses, but not for on-campus addresses. In order to make this work I have added the mail server to the /etc/exim4/passwd.client with login/password information. This worked great until a few days ago, when the off-campus mail from my system stopped going through. I hadn't changed anything. To test it out I tried to send a test message off-campus. See below for results. It appears that the mail server is not asking for authentication. If that is the case, is there a way for me to force authentication even if the mail server does not request it? Thanks, Matt -------------------------------------------------- Results of test message: -------------------------------------------------- # /usr/sbin/exim4 -v -i [email protected] Subject: Hello This is a test. <Ctrl-D> LOG: MAIN <= [email protected] U=matt P=local S=334 15:52 matt@debian 2[/var/spool/exim4/input] delivering 1Q2rW9-0001Id-Es R: smarthost for [email protected] T: remote_smtp_smarthost for [email protected] Connecting to smtp.nw.uwplatt.edu [137.104.128.96]:25 ... connected SMTP<< 220 ironman.uwplatt.edu ESMTP SMTP>> EHLO localhost.localdomain SMTP<< 250-ironman.uwplatt.edu 250-8BITMIME 250 SIZE 52428800 SMTP>> MAIL FROM:<[email protected]> SIZE=1367 SMTP<< 250 sender <[email protected]> ok SMTP>> RCPT TO:<[email protected]> SMTP<< 550 #5.1.0 Address rejected.
