[Kolab-devel] E-Mail relay and OL

[Stephan Buys]

Fixed :-)

I successfully replicated the problem with Outlook 2000 and KMail. 
The problem exists through the fact that Outlook 2000 does not support 
the PLAIN authentication method. You need to enable the LOGIN method.

How to do this:
1) Recompile sasl with Login support.
(from the QIM, now with the option --define 'with_login yes')
#rpm --rebuild sasl-2.1.13-20030530_kolab.src.rpm --define 'with_ldap yes' --define 'with_login yes'
(reinstall)
#rpm -e --nodeps sasl
#rpm -Uvh /kolab/RPM/PKG/sasl-2.1.13-20030530_kolab.ix86-linux2.4-kol.rpm

2) Enable the LOGIN mech for the smtpd.
edit /kolab/etc/sasl/apps/smtpd.conf
(Add login to the mech_list as shown below)
pwcheck_method: saslauthd
mech_list: plain login

3) restart kolab (actually just sasl and postfix)

(You might need to recompile postfix, I'm not sure)

That should do it. (Works on my machine)

All the best,
Stephan
