I have been able to get Evolution to successfully authenticate to a sendmail server using "LOGIN" against the server's local user accounts, (/etc/passwd and shadow).
However I have NOT been able to get it to authenticate using DIGEST-MD5 against the sasldb. Does anyone have experience with sendmail DIGEST-MD5 authentication? If so, have you been able to get it to work successfully with Evolution? Any suggestion as to what to look at next? - Paul Some debugging steps so far: Client: ximian Evolution 1.4 on RH9/2.4.20-20.9 kernel Server: Sendmail 8.12.8 on RH9/2.4.20-20.9 kernel I have been able to use the sasl-sample-client to authenticate to sasl-sample-server using /etc/sasldb on the server. I have tried several configurations in /usr/lib/sasl/Sendmail.conf including pwcheck_method:sasldb. None of them have been successful. ltrace indicates that sendmail is looking for /usr/..../Sendmail.conf and /etc/sasldb.
