Hi all, I recompiled exim with the SUPPORT_PAM=yes
and EXTRALIBS_EXIM=-lpam in the makefile.

I have my

begin authenticators

plain:
driver=plaintext
public_name=PLAIN
server_prompts=:
server_condition=${if pam{$2:${sg{$3}{:}{::}}}{yes}{no}}
server_set_id = $2

login:
driver=plaintext
public_name=LOGIN
server_prompts = Username:: : Password::
server_condition = ${if pam{$1:${sg{$2}{:}{::}}}{yes}{no}}
server_set_id = $1

However when I try to send an email through the test server I get

2003-10-22 09:57:06 login authenticator failed for xxx.lut.ac.uk
[xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx]: 535 Incorrect authentication data (set_id=ron)


but ron is a correct use and I have tried it with plain and login set on
my client. Any ideas ?

Ron
