Funnily last week i read -- i was peeking around because i haven't heard anything of msmtp for a long time, to find out ML is no longer used, and i think he it was who wrote it -- that today with that crypto everywhere plain authentication is good enough, and therefore sasl is not really needed no more. (I for one have no idea, i never had to connect to a Microsoft server for example (is that .. "ntlm"), i have never used anything else but X/TLS and thus plain. Except for testing purposes against a self-setup (sic) dovecot instance.) --steffen | |Der Kragenbaer, The moon bear, |der holt sich munter he cheerfully and one by one |einen nach dem anderen runter wa.ks himself off |(By Robert Gernhardt) -- End forward <20190305011108.rqqe1%stef...@sdaoden.eu> --steffen | |Der Kragenbaer, The moon bear, |der holt sich munter he cheerfully and one by one |einen nach dem anderen runter wa.ks himself off |(By Robert Gernhardt)
