Thanks for the explanation. Well, with the dozens of ways to authenticate
these days, who'd mind a poor little server get confused? :-)

Hello, Alexander, all:
I believe I've sent some log extracts to the list recently, so won't
do that again today. But I've not had this experience where a message
is first rejected and then accepted. I appreciate your analysis.
The best thing now I expect is that we find a way to make this

Hello, Alexander:
In the case of the Netscape mail client, I set the Outgoing server
name to the ChoiceMail proxy server: 127.0.01. I.e. not to the (direct
connection) SMTP address at SBC (DSL) that I was eventually forced to
use for The Bat.
In Netscape, along with that 127.0.01, I also provided
Hello, Terry:
Thanks much for this wonderful explanation. Now, how do we get all
this into a knowledge base for the benefit of other Batters in the
future? (I'll assume that the use of SMTP authentication will only
grow.)
Let me read it twice again and we'll see if I can fully grok it.

Just one question - the test mail you were sending with Netscape, did you
send it through ChoiceMail, or directly to
Hi David,
Glad to know that you can bypass ChoiceMail and it will work. That
just seemed like a lot of unnecessary overhead.

Thank you for your kind assistance.

So, the problem was solved by removing CMail? If so, my guess is that
it does not process PLAIN authentication mechanism (which

What do the logs say?[tm]
++A should reveal an error message we'll need for better
"guessing".

Hello, MAU:
OK, I am testing it that way now.
I am changing one setting: the SMTP was the one that Netscape has been
using successfully via ChoiceMail/SBCGlobal.
It is now the setting that ChoiceMail/ SBCGlobal uses directly.
But still, no joy.
Thank you for your idea.

Hello, Allie:
I've been a satisfied user of The Bat for 2-3 years.
About a year ago, I installed ChoiceMail (to control spam) in line with
The Bat v. 1.62i. The SMTP (Port 25) and POP (Port 110) servers were
then both changed to 127.0.01, for ChoiceMail.
A week ago, I changed from a dialup to
