Hi. Apologies to the list for sending this twice as I forgot to enter a proper subject line, I wanted to write the content first and then make up the subject line ;-) -------------------------------------------------------------------- I am trying to configure sendmail that is looks up the users credentials to allow them to send email via that server via an imap server on the same machine when sending email while on the road. I can send email when specifying a user that is stored in the servers /etc/shadow ... no problem but I cannot get my head around it how to do make saslauth OR sendmail lookup the user via the imap daemon. This is the working config (mc) for the sendmail daemon when using a locally created user (I knock the PLAIN off once I got it to work): define(`confAUTH_MECHANISMS', `LOGIN PLAIN DIGEST-MD5 CRAM-MD5') TRUST_AUTH_MECH(`LOGIN PLAIN DIGEST-MD5 CRAM-MD5') DAEMON_OPTIONS(`Family=inet, Port=465, Name=MTA-SSL, M=s') etc. How can I make sendmail (or saslauth) to get the user credentials via an imap server running on the same machine (the credentials are from an internal samba server) so I do not need to enter users details twice?
