Yup! Definitely have the clients setup correctly to use SMTP Authentication, using same as pop server. Clients I've tried are Outlook, Outlook Express, Netscape Mail, Entourage, Mac Mail. When I turn Authentication off on one of the clients, I get the message back at the client "Server Requires Authentication" or some such message, depending on the client. When Authentication is on with the client, the client gets "The SMTP server rejected the password for user "user". Please Re-enter your password or cancel" or some such message, depending on the client. This is what makes me think the password is not actually getting through somehow. Am I right to think pam or sasl or do you think this may still be a sendmail config problem? THANKS!

It appears you have something wrong at the client end. The MAIL/EXPN/VRFY/ETRN line shows up if someone connects to your server but doesn't follow through with the handshaking. You'll see it after you telnet to port 25, issue the ehlo command and then exit. It looks like your client connects but isn't talking properly to the server. Are you sure you've setup your mail client to use authentication? What client are you using and what have you done to its configuration to enable authentication? -- Gerry "The lyfe so short, the craft so long to learne" Chaucer -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:redhat-list-request@xxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:redhat-list-request@xxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
