ahh, so there is still an "334 key" command without CRAM MD-5? cool, so one only loses the CRAM MD-5 encryption with external databases. Thanks for the clarification, and I've thanked Tripp, too. >As you can see it tries to use Auth Login, but fails. This is apparently >still a bug in IMail. yes, the failure of the specific SMTP AUTH process is not related, exclusively, to the int vs ext database. I use internal and it still fails, but hasn't for two days, after failing frequently from Sat night til Monday last. The Russian guy said he has SMTP AUTH pb's when his IMail box gets very busy. How busy is your box? cpu load, disk i/o load?
