Subject: [exim] Some Outlook / Express not sending authentication...?
Hey Guys, I've got a strange one: Some of our machines running Outlook / Outlook Express looks like they're simply not sending authentication to Exim (and it's doing this on about 40% of the Outlook users). For example on one of these machines I decided to load Here's a log
example:

2010-02-23 12:46:45 H=dsl-245-216-168.telkomadsl.co.za (RuanVanWykPC)
[41.245.216.168] F=<ruanvipexp@???> rejected RCPT
<ruanvipexp@???>: Invalid HELO (RuanVanWykPC).

Here's the plain_auth part of my exim4.conf:

plain_auth:
    driver = plaintext
    public_name = PLAIN
    server_advertise_condition = ALLOW_PLAINTEXT_AUTH
#    client_send = ${lookup mysql{SELECT CONCAT('^', username, '^', password) FROM server_auth WHERE server='${quote_mysql:$host}'}}
    server_prompts = :
    server_condition = ${lookup mysql{SELECT LEAST(COUNT(*), 1) FROM user, email_address, domain WHERE user.user_id=email_address.user_id AND email_address.domain_id=domain.domain_id AND !user.disabled AND !domain.disabled AND  username='${quote_mysql:$auth2}' AND password='${quote_mysql:$auth3}'}}
    server_set_id = $2



Hope you can point me in the right direction here?
