Right, so then the Index argument starts at 1 to mark the first
character. That means that if you start with:
S := '250-AUTH=LOGIN CRAM-MD5 PLAIN';
and then do:
Delete(S, 1, 4);
you are left with:
S := 'AUTH=LOGIN CRAM-MD5 PLAIN';
So now, if you do:
S := Copy(S, 5, Length(S));
then you get:
S := '=LOGIN CRAM-MD5 PLAIN';
Because it started copying at the 5th character, no?
This is why Stéphane mentioned that the Index should be changed to a 6.
I think you thought he was talking about the 5 in the third argument of
if (CompareText(Copy(S, 1, 5), 'AUTH ') = 0) or
Instead of the 5 in the second argument of
S := Copy(S, 5, Length(S));
