Hello Philip,

Hmm... this kind of errors are harderrors that should solved immediatly
and nobody can do anything with the information "Auth_faild".... but for
me the admin it's really easier to find the error if i get any
information directly.
If a users says he has an retry error at this time... i must search :-(

Internal information.... what about the Information "User not exist" at
SMTP-Time? In my opnion it's necessary... but it's the same...

Messages for retry errors should be an option. Like messages at ACLs.

Mit freundlichen Grüßen,
