Okay, I'm banging my head against the wall, so time to look for help. I've got exim running on a debian (unstable) box and I want to set up user authentication so I can send mail if I'm outside the local network.
I uncommented the lines in /etc/exim/exim.conf and restarted. I created /etc/exim/passwd with variations of the following: mkomarinski:KTD2xRiXt5yJw (ps, that's 'foobar' run through mkpasswd - and it's not my real passwd) The client I'm using is evolution, set for user authentication with a user name of mkomarinski. It's not working. All I'm getting out of exim in the reject log is: 2002-04-02 13:49:14 Authentication failed for jackie.wayga.org [192.168.1.30]: 535 Incorrect authentication data The exim documentation is VERY sparse on how the /etc/exim/passwd file is supposed to be set up, and I can't seem to find out how to increase the logging to "tell me everything possible". Any ideas? And saying "use qmail/sendmail/postfix" is not quite the answer (yet). -Mark ***************************************************************** To unsubscribe from this list, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the text 'unsubscribe gnhlug' in the message body. *****************************************************************
