Hi,

I have a problem having exim4 (Debian sarge) on my laptop deal with my
smarthost-to-be smtp.sohu.com. I have successfully used the same
configuration with other smarthosts, so I think it's more a problem of
the smarthost, but I need an exim configuration to workaround that.

Whenever I try to send a message, I get an smtp error. This is the log
message:

2005-07-19 23:11:27 1DutL1-0002Oh-UV ** fschlich@??? F=<lifuan2005@???> P=<lifuan2005@???> R=smarthost_flo T=remote_smtp: SMTP error from remote mail server after MAIL FROM:<lifuan2005@???> SIZE=1652 AUTH=flo@tigerbay: host smtp.sohu.com [61.135.132.125]: 555 Unsupported option: AUTH=flo@tigerbay

So I suppose that authentication has been successful (AUTH LOGIN is the
only one supported), and that my smarthost chokes on the "AUTH=xxx" that
exim adds to the MAIL command. I know that I can use the
authenticated_sender option in my transport to influence the value of
AUTH= (setting it to my 'public' email address seems to make no
difference) - but I can't suppress the addition of this "AUTH=whatever"
altogether, can I?

Has anybody encountered such an error, or is successfully using
smtp.sohu.com? Any advice welcome!

Florian
