OKay so I thought i had this ting figured out, But seem not to have. But heres what I got.
smtpextauth.tab "LOGIN" "System-Auth" "/var/MailRoot/bin/Smtpauth.pl" "@@CHALL" "@@FSECRT" "@@DGEST" Now Smtpauth.pl is a simple script that really just takes the 3 line args and outputs them to a log file (just to see what they'd say). But when ends up happening is well nothing except for the fact when i run a "EHLO domain" against my server it now lists TWO login Auth types and the script is ever run. EHLO out put: 250-AUTH LOGIN PLAIN CRAM-MD5 LOGIN So basicly it looks like with smtpextauth.tab is that it's there not so much to act like pop3's External Auth but to allow you to add your own "Auth" type to Xmail's Auth types (those being Login,plain,cram-md5).
