Hi!
I cam trying to solve the following problem using exim4 and dovecot:
Users having their own sites inside the domain (sitex.domain.de) should send their outgoing mail in SSL sessions connecting to port 465. The password will be verified by dovecot.
Now I habe the problem that Exim is not accepting what the clients are sending. They get disconnected already before the password is verified.
The error in main.log is:
SMTP protocol synchronization error (input sent without waiting for greeting): rejected connection from H=[...] input="\200C\001\003\001"
Is there any solution to this problem?
I did follow these instructions:
https://www.exim.org/exim-html-current/doc/html/spec_html/ch-the_dovecot_authenticator.html
and
https://wiki2.dovecot.org/HowTo/EximAndDovecotSASL
BTW: I did not find the original config example in the debian package. Maybe, It would have helped me.
Can anybody give some help?
regards,
Jutta
