Hello all,
Been struggling with a problem here. I am getting "535 incorrect authentication data" errors when folks attempt to use plain authentication.
The odd thing is - I have users using Outlook and none of them appear to have the problems.
However, I have a provider that uses a PHP script to send out mails through my server - and every now and then, they get this error - but not all the time.
I just received an Android 2.2 tablet device and am attempting to setup e-mail and it constantly gives the error message and cannot get past it.
Here is my authenticators config:
begin authenticators
plain:
driver = plaintext
public_name = PLAIN
server_prompts = :
server_set_id = $auth2
server_condition = ${lookup mysql{SELECT user_uid FROM horde_users WHERE user_uid ='${quote_mysql:$1}' AND user_pass ='${quote_mysql:$2}'}{1}fail}
server_advertise_condition = true
login:
driver = plaintext
public_name = LOGIN
server_prompts = "Username:: : Password::"
server_condition = ${lookup mysql{SELECT user_uid FROM horde_users WHERE user_uid="$1" AND user_pass="$2"}{1}fail}
server_set_id = $1
server_advertise_condition = false
Here is the error in the log:
2011-09-27 17:10:19 plain authenticator failed for android_5efb516d7ad14990.domain.com (localhost) [192.168.254.33]: 535 Incorrect authentication data (set_id=user@???)
Just not understanding why it is working for those using Outlook without any troubles - but it isn't working with the Android device and causing issues for one of my providers using PHP to send messages.
