Hello Everyone and good day.
I do run Exim-4.30 on FreeBSD and I was this morning looking for an
_easier_ (simple, non-complicated) way to achieve ASMTP with Exim.
In the process, I searched the archives and encountered some discussions
about pwcheck and saslauthd.
The thread
http://www.exim.org/pipermail/exim-users/Week-of-Mon-20030728/057310.html
recommended the deprecation of pwcheck method and the 'horse' seemed to
agree ;). The Exim port maintained also noted this in the 4.30 port,
that PWCHECK is deprecated.

Now, there are some howtos about doing this stuff with pwcheck and it
seems to work so easily, or at least that is the opinion I formed when I
went through one such howto. It was damn easy.

Are there any detailed howtos on doing asmtp using saslauthd out there?


        cheers
