Ok Stefano,

could you please open a Jira issue describing the enhancement requested (just for tracking)? After that I will apply and commit the changes, unless someone jumps up with some reason against it.

offering the AUTH keywords in the EHLO response when authentication is not

The "250-AUTH" answers simply says that the server correctly handle a set of
SMTP commands: they doesn't imply that the server really supports user
authentication.

Such behaviour can be attained just changing four "if
(authRequired) {...}" statements to "if (true) {...}" in
SMTPServer.doHelo(String) and SMTPServer.doEhlo(String).

Does anybody know if doing this simple change would create any problem? Should we make this behaviour optional?

Vincenzo

I didn't read the RFC about EHLO "AUTH" extension and its behaviour. IMHO this changed behaviour should not break anything but I will look into the specification if noone has knowledge about this.


Stefano
