Hi,
while trying to set up certificate only authentication msmtp always
died with the following error message:
msmtp: the server does not support authentication
This is because my server (postfix) doesn't announce authentication
methods after completing the STARTTLS handshake.
If I read the docs correctly external auth is not meant to be used
together with another, interal auth method.
The following patch removes the auth check if external auth is used:
diff --git a/src/msmtp.c b/src/msmtp.c
index fe57010..f369b5e 100644

Note:
The check in line 1735 was the one making the trouble.
I patched the on in line 667 only because the if-block looks the same.
Thanks for msmtp and regards,
Thomas
