Hi,

while playing around with the SPA-Authenticator, I found that feeding it
with arbitrary(aka nonsense) strings will result in the following
assertation(exim4.20+exiscan-acl on FreeBSD 4.8, nonport version):

35054 SMTP>> 334 NTLM supported
35054 SMTP>> 334
TlRMTVNTUAACAAAAAAAAAAAoAAABggAA3gBSclxrx9nsIiwoUJAOCEDqv78BZyso
assertion "len + 1 < sizeof buf" failed: file "auth-spa.c", line 1275
34925 child 35054 ended: status=0x6


which can easly reproduced with something like:

$ telnet localhost 25
Trying ::1...
Connected to localhost.
Escape character is '^]'.

I'm actually quite sure that I reported this one a _long_ time ago to
the original author of this particular code (Tom Kistner - IRC) but
somehow it got forgotten :-(
