Hello list:
I have been trying to get SMTP authentication on Gentoo to work with no
success. I am running qmail (netqmail package) with dovecot and saslauth.
I am able to connect and read my mail through IMAP fine. The problem is
that I cannot send email using my own SMTP server due to an authentication
issue. Every time we try to send email out we get an error saying that it
cannot establish a connection because I am not part of the allowed rcphost
list. I tried adding the remote host in the rcpthosts database but the
problem persists. The only error I see in the log files for dovecot is
"Disconnected"
Can anyone point me in the right direction as to why I can't be
authenticated when sending email out? Another thing is, it keeps
prompting me for my passwd.

Ha, I am having the same problem as Tito Valentin. Is anyone out there
able to shed some light on this problem? I opted for the use of
SquirrelMail in the mean time but it would be nice to be able to use
Thunderbird or Outlook.
Thanks,

Hello everyone:
Please add me to the list of folks who are unable to authenticate smtp. I
am also having this smtp authentication problem though I am using Courier
(IMAP) and not dovecot. It is driving me crazy. What I have done in order
to be able to send mail is to use my ISP's smtp server but I see how some
folks wouldn't want their ISP's servers to be present in their email
headers.
I hope someone is able to make a suggestion soon,
David
