Hello,
I am having trouble getting exim to authenticate to a SMTP relay. I
have made the appropriate entry in passwd.client as per the manual, but
am using the wildcard (*) considering the reverse DN lookup
implications. I have configured the appropriate smarthost options. I
have followed all of the configuration guides I can find, yet exim still
refuses to authenticate to my SMTP relay. The SMTP relay keeps coming
back with an authentication error. I have even tried using exim -v
<email address> and followed through with the FROM and SUBJECT. I can
see the communication between my server and the SMTP relay and do not
see any authentication being sent, yielding the "Please authenticate
first." error message. I am using Ubuntu 22.04 and Exim 4.95. Can
anyone offer any suggestions as to what I might be doing wrong?
