Sorry, but the mailing list program has eaten more than half of my
rant. Looks like it doesn't like a dot on it's own on a line (Yes, I
know it's the SMTP signal for EOT).
Hi,
I was monkeying around a bit with s_client. Idea is to feed s_client a
file with commands required to STARTTLS, authenticate to the smtp server
and the message itself. I have this file:
------------------------------
ehlo hereami
auth login
dfbdffdbZWhhcjU=
dffbbbbdddBoYTI=
mail from:<here...@gmail.com>
rcpt to:<here...@gmail.com>
data
From: <here...@gmail.com>
To: <whoe...@gmail.com>
Subject: With s_client
Date: Mon, 18 Feb 2013 22:28:00 +0100
Testing ...
one-single-dot
QUIT
-------------------------------
Without the dashes, of course; plus real addresses and passwords.
I then do openssl s_client -crlf -connect smtp.gmail.com:587 -CApath
/etc/mutt_CA -starttls smtp -pause -quiet < feed
gmail then comes back with
depth=2 /C=US/O=Equifax/OU=Equifax Secure Certificate Authority verify
return:1
depth=1 /C=US/O=Google Inc/CN=Google Internet Authority verify return:1
depth=0 /C=US/ST=California/L=Mountain View/O=Google Inc/CN=smtp.gmail.com
verify return:1
250 ENHANCEDSTATUSCODES
250-mx.google.com at your service, [91.44.157.56] 250-SIZE 35882577
250-8BITMIME
250-AUTH LOGIN PLAIN XOAUTH XOAUTH2
250 ENHANCEDSTATUSCODES
334 VXNlcm5hbWU6
and that's it, nothing more. Won't take any more interactive input either.
The 334 VXNlcm5hbWU6 is begging for the user name, but apparently it
doesn't get one. Now comes the funny thing: leaving out the ehlo line in
the file gives me
depth=2 /C=US/O=Equifax/OU=Equifax Secure Certificate Authority verify
return:1
depth=1 /C=US/O=Google Inc/CN=Google Internet Authority verify return:1
depth=0 /C=US/ST=California/L=Mountain View/O=Google Inc/CN=smtp.gmail.com
verify return:1
250 ENHANCEDSTATUSCODES
334 VXNlcm5hbWU6
334 UGFzc3dvcmQ6
Final words are now 334 UGFzc3dvcmQ6 which means it's awaiting the
password.
The thought would arise that somehow s_client for whatever reason only
gets the first two lines from the external file. Typing the commands
interactively wotks ok.
I tired all sorts of other things, like leaving out -pause etc, but to no
avail. Anybody has any clues, please ("bug or feature")?
TIA, regards
Andreas
