Re: [IMail Forum] SMTP Auth serious issue

Hi John,   The server SMTP log doesn't say anything about the authentication failed events.  But my outlook log looks like:   Outlook Express 5.00.2615.200 SMTP Log started at 03/10/2004 11:05:02 SMTP: 11:05:04 [rx] 220 X1 NT-ESMTP Server mail.ankur-coer.org (IMail 6.05 3959-8) SMTP: 11:05:04 [tx] EHLO aparna SMTP: 11:05:04 [rx] 250-mail.ankur-coer.org says hello SMTP: 11:05:04 [rx] 250-SIZE 0 SMTP: 11:05:04 [rx] 250-8BITMIME SMTP: 11:05:04 [rx] 250-DSN SMTP: 11:05:04 [rx] 250-ETRN SMTP: 11:05:04 [rx] 250-AUTH LOGIN CRAM-MD5 SMTP: 11:05:04 [rx] 250-AUTH=LOGIN SMTP: 11:05:04 [rx] 250 EXPN SMTP: 11:05:04 [tx] AUTH LOGIN SMTP: 11:05:05 [rx] 334 VXNlcm5hbWU6 SMTP: 11:05:05 [tx] dGVjaEBldGVjaGluZGlhLmNvbQ== SMTP: 11:05:05 [rx] 500 failed authentication SMTP: 11:05:09 [rx] 220 X1 NT-ESMTP Server mail.ankur-coer.org (IMail 6.05 3962-8) SMTP: 11:05:09 [tx] EHLO aparna SMTP: 11:05:11 [rx] 250-mail.ankur-coer.org says hello SMTP: 11:05:11 [rx] 250-SIZE 0 SMTP: 11:05:11 [rx] 250-8BITMIME SMTP: 11:05:11 [rx] 250-DSN SMTP: 11:05:11 [rx] 250-ETRN SMTP: 11:05:11 [rx] 250-AUTH LOGIN CRAM-MD5 SMTP: 11:05:11 [rx] 250-AUTH=LOGIN SMTP: 11:05:11 [rx] 250 EXPN SMTP: 11:05:11 [tx] AUTH LOGIN SMTP: 11:05:12 [rx] 334 VXNlcm5hbWU6 SMTP: 11:05:12 [tx] dGVjaEBldGVjaGluZGlhLmNvbQ== SMTP: 11:05:12 [rx] 500 failed authentication SMTP: 11:05:15 [rx] 220 X1 NT-ESMTP Server mail.ankur-coer.org (IMail 6.05 3964-7) SMTP: 11:05:15 [tx] EHLO aparna SMTP: 11:05:16 [rx] 250-mail.ankur-coer.org says hello SMTP: 11:05:16 [rx] 250-SIZE 0 SMTP: 11:05:16 [rx] 250-8BITMIME SMTP: 11:05:16 [rx] 250-DSN SMTP: 11:05:16 [rx] 250-ETRN SMTP: 11:05:16 [rx] 250-AUTH LOGIN CRAM-MD5 SMTP: 11:05:16 [rx] 250-AUTH=LOGIN SMTP: 11:05:16 [rx] 250 EXPN SMTP: 11:05:16 [tx] AUTH LOGIN SMTP: 11:05:16 [rx] 334 VXNlcm5hbWU6 SMTP: 11:05:16 [tx] dGVjaEBldGVjaGluZGlhLmNvbQ== SMTP: 11:05:16 [rx] 500 failed authentication SMTP: 11:06:23 [rx] 220 X1 NT-ESMTP Server mail.ankur-coer.org (IMail 6.05 4003-10) SMTP: 11:06:23 [tx] EHLO aparna SMTP: 11:06:24 [rx] 250-mail.ankur-coer.org says hello SMTP: 11:06:24 [rx] 250-SIZE 0 SMTP: 11:06:24 [rx] 250-8BITMIME SMTP: 11:06:24 [rx] 250-DSN SMTP: 11:06:24 [rx] 250-ETRN SMTP: 11:06:24 [rx] 250-AUTH LOGIN CRAM-MD5 SMTP: 11:06:24 [rx] 250-AUTH=LOGIN SMTP: 11:06:24 [rx] 250 EXPN SMTP: 11:06:24 [tx] AUTH LOGIN SMTP: 11:06:25 [rx] 334 VXNlcm5hbWU6 SMTP: 11:06:25 [tx] dGVjaEBldGVjaGluZGlhLmNvbQ== SMTP: 11:06:25 [rx] 500 failed authentication SMTP: 11:06:49 [rx] 220 X1 NT-ESMTP Server mail.ankur-coer.org (IMail 6.05 8-7) SMTP: 11:06:49 [tx] EHLO aparna SMTP: 11:06:49 [rx] 250-mail.ankur-coer.org says hello SMTP: 11:06:49 [rx] 250-SIZE 0 SMTP: 11:06:49 [rx] 250-8BITMIME SMTP: 11:06:49 [rx] 250-DSN SMTP: 11:06:49 [rx] 250-ETRN SMTP: 11:06:49 [rx] 250-AUTH LOGIN CRAM-MD5 SMTP: 11:06:49 [rx] 250-AUTH=LOGIN SMTP: 11:06:49 [rx] 250 EXPN SMTP: 11:06:49 [tx] AUTH LOGIN SMTP: 11:06:50 [rx] 334 VXNlcm5hbWU6 SMTP: 11:06:50 [tx] dGVjaEBldGVjaGluZGlhLmNvbQ== SMTP: 11:06:50 [rx] 500 failed authentication SMTP: 11:06:54 [rx] 220 X1 NT-ESMTP Server mail.ankur-coer.org (IMail 6.05 12-5) SMTP: 11:06:54 [tx] EHLO aparna SMTP: 11:06:55 [rx] 250-mail.ankur-coer.org says hello SMTP: 11:06:55 [rx] 250-SIZE 0 SMTP: 11:06:55 [rx] 250-8BITMIME SMTP: 11:06:55 [rx] 250-DSN SMTP: 11:06:55 [rx] 250-ETRN SMTP: 11:06:55 [rx] 250-AUTH LOGIN CRAM-MD5 SMTP: 11:06:55 [rx] 250-AUTH=LOGIN SMTP: 11:06:55 [rx] 250 EXPN SMTP: 11:06:55 [tx] AUTH LOGIN SMTP: 11:06:55 [rx] 334 VXNlcm5hbWU6 SMTP: 11:06:55 [tx] dGVjaEBldGVjaGluZGlhLmNvbQ== SMTP: 11:06:55 [rx] 334 UGFzc3dvcmQ6 SMTP: 11:06:55 [tx] dGVjaDEyMw== SMTP: 11:06:56 [rx] 235 authenticated SMTP: 11:06:56 [tx] MAIL FROM: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> It accepts the same login info..

What will be the possible reason and work around?   Regards, Aparna     ************************************************************** Scanned by MailScan Anti-Virus and Content Security Software.
