This means the smtp server does not advertise SMTP AUTH. The smtp connection tests for this smtp extension and if it does not find AUTH it returns that error. That smtp username and password is then used in one of the supported authentication methods (eg login, plain, cram-md5 etc.). Its not for SASL. You can double check the server by doing a telnet to the port (25 or 587) and sending EHLO fqdn and see what smtp extensions are supported. -- .warren _______________________________________________ List mailing list [email protected] http://lists.pfsense.org/mailman/listinfo/list
