Hello,

I am having trouble getting exim to authenticate to a SMTP relay.  I have made the appropriate entry in passwd.client as per the manual, but am using the wildcard (*) considering the reverse DN lookup implications.  I have configured the appropriate smarthost options.  I have followed all of the configuration guides I can find, yet exim still refuses to authenticate to my SMTP relay.  The SMTP relay keeps coming back with an authentication error.  I have even tried using exim -v <email address> and followed through with the FROM and SUBJECT.  I can see the communication between my server and the SMTP relay and do not see any authentication being sent, yielding the "Please authenticate first." error message.  I am using Ubuntu 22.04 and Exim 4.95.  Can anyone offer any suggestions as to what I might be doing wrong?

Eric Kingston
