Dovecot on its side is expecting additional information from exim. None of the two parties move forward and exim do not respond to the SMTp client. After some unspecified time, the MUA terminates the connection, because no response is sent from the server. Exim is configured with: begin authenticators dovecot_plain: driver = dovecot public_name = PLAIN server_socket = /var/run/dovecot/auth-userdb server_set_id = $auth1 dovecot_login: driver = dovecot public_name = LOGIN server_socket = /var/run/dovecot/auth-userdb server_set_id = $auth1
Not sure whether this is relevant but those both have $auth1. PLAIN usually has $auth2 where LOGIN has $auth1 -- Dr. Andrew C.
