I have a server that runs OpenBSD 4.1, and a laptop running Windows. I want to use Thunderbird on the laptop to send mail via the server. The laptop connects from many different networks.
I would like to use port 587, since some isps blocks port 25. I want to use my username/password to authenticate. I want to use TLS to protect the password. I get the dreaded 'Relaying denied. Proper authentication needed.' The relevant parts of the mc file looks like this dnl dnl TLS/SSL support; uncomment and read starttls(8) to use. dnl define(`CERT_DIR', `/etc/ssl')dnl define(`confCACERT_PATH', `CERT_DIR')dnl define(`confCACERT', `CERT_DIR/CAcert.pem')dnl define(`confSERVER_CERT', `CERT_DIR/sendmailcert.pem')dnl define(`confSERVER_KEY', `CERT_DIR/private/sendmail.pem')dnl define(`confCLIENT_CERT', `CERT_DIR/sendmailcert.pem')dnl define(`confCLIENT_KEY', `CERT_DIR/private/sendmail.pem')dnl dnl SMTP AUTH define(`confAUTH_MECHANISMS', `PLAIN LOGIN')dnl TRUST_AUTH_MECH(`PLAIN LOGIN')dnl define(`confAUTH_OPTIONS', `A p')dnl Googling gives a lot of references to SASL. Do I really have to go down that road to do something as simple as this? -- Fredrik Stax\"ang | rot13: [EMAIL PROTECTED] This is all you need to know about vi: ESC : q ! RET
