Re: [vchkpw] Using chkuser as 'smtp-authentication' mechanism. WAS: [empf] Choosing a good SMTP_AUTH patch
No, you were mistaken when you thought I meant the chkusr patch did SMTP authentication. I said it works *with* SMTP authentication. The mistake I made, earlier, is that I replied with a chkusr patch link instead of SMTP authentication :) My bad! Ah! heheheheh. :-) No problem. bruno.

Thanks Tony. Now I understood. So I conclude that Matt was mistaken when he told that chkuser could do smtp-authentication. Is that right Matt?

Hi Dave, I just discovered that the chkuser-2.0.8b-release ships with a netqmail-1.05_auth-0.4.2_chkuser-2.0.8.patch. Maybe this is the patch Matt is referring to.
