Jeremy, thanks for note to use server_condition. I reviewed the user guide here
http://exim.org/exim-html-current/doc/html/spec_html/ch-smtp_authentication.html but I'm afraid I'm not familiar enough with Exim to translate this into code. Could someone give an example how to use server_condition to whitelist either a port or IP address from a rule selected in Cpanel for " Require clients to connect with SSL or issue the STARTTLS command before they are allowed to authenticate with the server" ? Or, other workaround. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Jeremy Harris" <[email protected]> To: [email protected] Sent: Tuesday, November 18, 2014 1:43:38 AM Subject: Re: [exim] is it possible to whitelist specific IP or port 26 to allow plain-text logins?

For either of those two, a suitable "server_condition" option on the relevant authenticator definition. http://exim.org/exim-html-current/doc/html/spec_html/ch-smtp_authentication.html -- Cheers, Jeremy -- ## List details at https://lists.exim.org/mailman/listinfo/exim-users ## Exim details at http://www.exim.org/ ## Please use the Wiki with this list - http://wiki.exim.org/ -- ## List details at https://lists.exim.org/mailman/listinfo/exim-users ## Exim details at http://www.exim.org/ ## Please use the Wiki with this list - http://wiki.exim.org/
