Hi Barry,

All,

I have a need to turn on smtp authentification and when I simply turn it on in the general setup screen it fails and the smtp says that the authentification method is not supported and I have found out the authentification is login type.

It seems the PEAR library sometimes has trouble with SMTP authentication.

After some digging, I found that there is some sort of base64 encoding of the smtp settings and I need to know how to get at them. I assume that something wasn't done right during the initial install and I would like to inspect them and fix them.

SMTP settings (Like all other general settings) are stored in a serialized & base64 encoded array which is stored in /eventum/setup.conf.php

Something that can be handy in debugging this is turning on SMTP debugging in /eventum/include/pear/Net/SMTP.php. Just set var $_debug to true on line 73.
