Here is an extract from that file:


       fprintf(f, "VERSION\t%d\t%d\nCPID\t%d\n"
               "AUTH\t%d\t%s\tservice=smtp\trip=%s\tlip=%s\tresp=%s\n",
               VERSION_MAJOR, VERSION_MINOR, getpid(), cuid,
               ablock->public_name, sender_host_address, interface_address,
               data ? (char *) data : "");


/****************************************************************************
The code below was the original code here. It didn't work. A reading of the
file auth-protocol.txt.gz that came with Dovecot 1.0_beta8 indicated that
this was not right. Maybe something changed. I changed it to the above, and
it seems to be better. PH

       fprintf(f, "VERSION\t%d\t%d\r\nSERVICE\tSMTP\r\nCPID\t%d\r\n"
               "AUTH\t%d\t%s\trip=%s\tlip=%s\tresp=%s\r\n",
               VERSION_MAJOR, VERSION_MINOR, getpid(), cuid,
               ablock->public_name, sender_host_address, interface_address,
               data ? (char *) data : "");
****************************************************************************/



Just replace the first fprintf() statement with the second one from
inside the comment. You can do that by deleting appropriate lines so
that you are left with:

       fprintf(f, "VERSION\t%d\t%d\r\nSERVICE\tSMTP\r\nCPID\t%d\r\n"
               "AUTH\t%d\t%s\trip=%s\tlip=%s\tresp=%s\r\n",
               VERSION_MAJOR, VERSION_MINOR, getpid(), cuid,
               ablock->public_name, sender_host_address, interface_address,
               data ? (char *) data : "");


Of course, keep a copy of the old file, just in case.
