Re: exim4 SMTP AUTH
Hi Lior, The following link will explain exactly what you need for exim3: (I used it once and it works) http://www.eckes.org/article.php?sid=150 Tweaking the configuration a bit to work with exim4 shouldn't take you a lot of time. (just go to exim's website and check their manuals) goodluck, Noam On 8/16/05, Lior Kaplan [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi, I'm using Debian's exim4 to sendmail from my computer to other using the 'smarthost' settings.

I can install exim4-daemon-heavy to solve this, but that is an overkill.

Here is what I did for 013's mail server: root # cat /etc/exim4/conf.d/main/90_exim4-config_SMTP-AUTH ### main/90_exim4-config_SMTP-AUTH ## # SMTP-AUTH client configuration. # See /usr/share/doc/exim4-base/README.SMTP-AUTH for explanations. AUTH_CLIENT_ALLOW_NOTLS_PASSWORDS = mail.013.net root # cat /etc/exim4/passwd.client ### CONFDIR/passwd.client # # Format: #targetmailserver.example:login:password # # default entry: ### *:bar:foo mail.013.net:user_name:password And restart exim: /etc/init.d/exim4 restart. I do hope I haven't forgotten something. You might notice that I am using the multiple files configuration method. Do let us know if your ISP uses a more sophisticated authentication method.
