Hi everyone!

I can't make courier use AUTH LOGIN it seems to default to AUTH PLAIN. How can I force AUTH LOGIN?

I have courier to relay (smarthost) mail to 2 mailservers at different ISP's. But at ISP2's mailserver AUTH PLAIN failes.

I tried to set esmtpd: ESMTPAUTH="LOGIN"

That's for incoming ESMTP. Nothing to do with outgoing ESMTP.

but courier still use AUTH PLAIN. As this dump will show:

recv: 220 ISP2 ESMTP Tue, 25 Dec 2007 22:19:01 +0100 send: EHLO mail recv: 250-ISP2 Hello mail [127.0.0.1] 250-SIZE 52428800 250-PIPELINING 250-AUTH PLAIN LOGIN 250 HELP send: AUTH PLAIN xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx recv: 535 Incorrect.authentication data

If the remote mail server claims that it supports AUTH PLAIN, then Courier will use it. If the remote mail server's AUTH PLAIN is broken, contact their administrator, and have them fix it.
