Hello,
I have a mail server "mx1" with this listening section :
-------------------------------------------
listen on egress inet4 \
tls-require \
auth
-------------------------------------------
I have also a server "test" and I would want to authenticate the user when
sending an e-mail to the server "mx1" but I get an error :
-------------------------------------------
test smtpd[9309]: f3880cf18b73253d mta error reason=AUTH rejected: 535
Authentication failed
-------------------------------------------
"test" seems to connect properly on "mx1" but the error does occur on the
user authentication.
Because I can perfectly connect to "mx1" with a MUA like Thunderbird, it
makes me think the error should be located on the opensmtpd "test" secrets
file :
-------------------------------------------
foo [email protected]:password
-------------------------------------------
The password is 40 digits long and looks like this :
C>(3")GID~7B7%{~LIq_G*JdP6fTW*"[`G)<k?(G
Can a special character be a problem in the password field ?
If yes, how to deal with it ?
Thanks for your suggestions.
