It worked in exim3 ! when i moved to exim4 a couple of users moved from
pmail (that uses cram) to thunderbid so i thouglt it was a
problem whith this program (that in fact had this problem even with other
servers). Today i had a new user, that uses outlook and together tried to
let it work, to see that also outlook now did not work.
The conversion script from exim3 to exim4 changed some lines, but retained
this !
problem closed.
thanks to thse that suggested me the way to found it.
