smtpAuthAutoSelect tries to find the most secure authentication method possible, however it doesn't fall back to no authentication. If you want that feature it's easy from user code. > Should it > send an AUTH request, if the command is not on the list? I think it should since sometimes mail server do not publish all available extensions in the EHLO response. So even if there's no AUTH found in the list TSmtpCli stupidly does a trial and error. This procedure has been suggested by Jake Traynham. It doesn't hurt anyway since the server MUST accept that. > What is the > default in this case? The most secure authentication method the server publishes in the EHLO response. Though since more methods have been added in the meanwhile it's not clear which one is actually the most secure authentication. -- Arno Garrels [TeamICS] http://www.overbyte.be/eng/overbyte/teamics.html -- To unsubscribe or change your settings for TWSocket mailing list please goto http://lists.elists.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/twsocket Visit our website at http://www.overbyte.be
