Hello,
What do the log files say ? Have you tried enabling debugging ?

When I try to send mail, I get the following error message from KMail:
Your SMTP server claims to support TLS, but negotiation was unsuccessful.
This is an encryption problem which happens before authentication.
If I disable TLS and try just plain authentication, I receive a message
indicating "Your SMTP server does not support PLAIN."
This is an authentication problem. The error seems to indicate that
SMTP is not configured for PLAIN text authentication. If you are using
username and password auth for your smtp server then you need to enable
PLAIN (ie plain text) in your mail server (MTA). This should not be a
security problem as long as TLS is working, which encrypts the plain
text username and password.
How were you authenticating SMTP before? Did users have local accounts
(eg /etc/passwd) or did you backend into SQL or LDAP?
Thanks Gustin.
I would prefer to keep the encryption in place, so guess I should be focusing
on the encryption problem.
My configuration matches the one suggested on this guide:
http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/qmail-howto.xml
- up to, but not including setting up Horde. I decided to try some different
webmail clients and settled on E-Groupware. But the problem is occuring
before this...
I'm wondering if maybe openssl got updated on me without me noticing, or
courierauth. If it helps, I re-did the steps indicated in the link above a
couple of times, and checked all the settings, but that still didn't help
out.
Um... I'm not sure which config files are pertinent for
encryption/authentication. I'll take a look at what I have and send you the
pertinent files off list. Let me know if there's any particular file you'd
like to see.
