Hello,
I am using two exim instance one for SMTP sending emails and one for
POP/IMAP to receive emails.
I tried to configure SMTP authentication via creating
/etc/exim/passwd.client file which contains all my domain users with
password.
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root /etc/exim/passwd.client
$ cat /etc/exim/passwd.client (manually inserted those users,pass)
myuser1:secret1
myuser2:secret2
myuser3:secret3
Account Type >> POP3
Tools >> Options >> Email Accounts >> user@??? >> Incoming Mail
server >> IMAP/POP3 server IP
Tools >> Options >> Email Accounts >> user@??? >> Outgoing Mail
server >> SMTP server IP
Tools >> Options >> Email Accounts >> user@??? >> Outgoing Mail
server >> More Settings >> Outgoing Server
(SELECTED) My outgoing server (SMTP) requires authentication.
(SELECTED) Logon using username: myuser1 password: secret1
But as soon as i send email it stuck in outlook outbox never reaches to
SMTP server. As soon as i uncheck SMTP requires authentication mails
delievers properly.
Please let me know how to configure SMTP authentication. I need this
because to make is secure and no one can abuse SMTP server.
