hey,

I was wondering if anyone could give me a list of known pitfalls getting MS
Outlook to work with JAMES and SMTP AUTH.

I have JAMES all setup with SMTP AUTH.

I can successfully run an SMTP session via telnet, and it authenticates okay
and sends the mail which gets delivered fine.

However, when I try to use MS Outlook as the client, I get problems.
Basically, Outlook just throws error after error.  Outlook can successfully
connect to the JAMES POP3 server and fetch the messages, but it just won't
send stuff using SMTP AUTH.

I get the same problem with JavaMail, it will not send using JAMES and SMTP
AUTH.  Throws authentication error.  (Yes I've double checked all passwords,
etc.)
Any ideas?

Did you enable smtp auth in the config.xml?

<!--  Uncomment this if you want to require SMTP authentication.

supported values:
true: required but announced only to not authorizedAddresses
false: don't use AUTH
announce: like true, but always announce AUTH capability to clients

The correct behaviour per RFC value would be false or announce
but we still support true for backward compatibility and because
some webmail client fails when AUTH is announced but no authentication
information has been provided
-->
<!--
<authRequired>true</authRequired>
-->

You should use

<authRequired>announce</authRequired>

If you already did this then start looking at logs created by james when it refuse to authenticate you.
