hi everyone

setup exim4 today and it rocks! :-)

however, one problem remains:
tested with email-sending with smtp-auth enabled with outlook, tbird, evolution --> works great
however, kmail does not connect:

2007-08-06 23:25:55 SMTP connection from [ip]:4140 I=[ip]:25 (TCP/IP connection count = 1)
2007-08-06 23:25:55 SMTP connection from hostname [ip]:4140 I=[ip]:25 closed by QUIT


sound familiar to anyone?

regards
urs

see relevant config and kmail error below.

setup exim4 (with virtual users in mysql-db) as follows:

#### authenticators section
plain:
driver = plaintext
public_name = PLAIN
server_advertise_condition = ${if eq{$tls_cipher}{}{no}{yes}}
server_condition = ${if crypteq {$3}{\{sha1\}${lookup mysql {SELECT DISTINCT password FROM user WHERE CONCAT(username,'@',domain)='${quote_mysql:$2}' AND SMTPAUTH_allowed='YES'}}}
{yes}{no}}
server_set_id = $2

login:
driver = plaintext
public_name = LOGIN
server_prompts = Username:: : Password::
server_advertise_condition = ${if eq{$tls_cipher}{}{no}{yes}}
server_condition = ${if crypteq {$2}{\{sha1\}${lookup mysql {SELECT DISTINCT password FROM user WHERE CONCAT(username,'@',domain)='${quote_mysql:$1}' AND SMTPAUTH_allowed='YES'}}}
{yes}{no}}
server_set_id = $1


Kmail error:
