Thanks for the hints, Sam, but I cannot see what's wrong yet.

It looks like Authstart is there:

ls -al ~courier/libexec/courier/modules/esmtp/ total 992 drwxr-xr-x 2 courier courier 4096 Jan 2 22:16 . drwxr-xr-x 6 bin bin 4096 Jan 2 22:16 .. -r-xr-x--- 1 courier courier 27139 Jan 2 22:16 addcr -r-xr-xr-x 1 courier courier 54422 Jan 2 22:16 authend -r-sr-x--- 1 root courier 128327 Jan 2 22:16 authstart -r-xr-x--- 1 courier courier 544812 Jan 2 22:16 courieresmtp -r-xr-x--- 1 courier courier 223159 Jan 2 22:16 courieresmtpd

Here are my ~courier/etc/esmtpd settings relevant to relaying. They worked on my other Courier 0.32 install, except that 0.32 had AUTHMODULES="authuserdb"

##NAME: AUTH_REQUIRED:0 # # Set AUTH_REQUIRED to 1 in order to force the client to use ESMTP # authentication. You can override AUTH_REQUIRED on a per-IP address basis # using smtpaccess. See makesmtpaccess(8).

AUTH_REQUIRED=0

##NAME: AUTHMODULES:4 # # To enable authenticated SMTP relaying, uncomment AUTHMODULES, # and set ESMTPAUTH to ESMTP authentication mechanisms we support. Currently # LOGIN and CRAM-MD5 are available: # AUTHMODULES="authdaemon" ESMTPAUTH="LOGIN CRAM-MD5"

When I change AUTH_REQUIRED from 0 to 1 I get following from esmtpd:

250-XVERP 250-XEXDATA 250-XSECURITY=NONE,STARTTLS 250-PIPELINING 250-8BITMIME 250-SIZE 250 DSN 535 Authentication required. 221 Bye.

There is still no AUTH LOGIN anywhere. Should I grab the new 0.37 version and give it a try?

Thanks, Alex.

Yes it should. Check the settings in the esmtpd configuration file, and make sure that authstart is installed.
