Greetings Steffen, list,
Following Karol's post, I reviewed an earlier problem I was having, and found it to be related to the encoding of @ within USER when using xxx-USER@HOST settings. Note that this behavior change is not dependant on v15-compat. > # required syntax for < 14.7 > set [email protected]@mail.messagingengine.com=PASSWD > # required syntax for 14.7 > set password-gavtroy%[email protected]=PASSWD I think this is a step backwards, especially considering a raw "@" works in "folder", "smtp", etc., and so I expect it is an unintended change. Furthermore, when trying out v15-compat, I expected the same setting to authenticate my smtps session. However, S-nail actually requires the port number to be included. Thus I need eg. > set password-mail.messagingengine.com:465=PASSWD which I think is not the desired behavior. Finally to sign off, I'd just like to say that I don't technically require user/host-specific settings at all. I simply like being able to source passwords for multiple accounts from a separate file, so that the guts of the config can live on bitbucket/github. But this is of course unnecessary. :) As established by the fact that it was previously broken for a decade before being fixed by S-nail, it's likely that nobody else uses this feature anyway! -- Gavin ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ HPCC Systems Open Source Big Data Platform from LexisNexis Risk Solutions Find What Matters Most in Your Big Data with HPCC Systems Open Source.
