Auth PLAIN for SMTP (submission port)
Question asked by Sébastien Riccio - 9/19/2019 at 1:43 AM

Hello,

For some reason, we need to have PLAIN auth mecanism available on our submission port (using tls of course), however it seems that SmarterMail only returns LOGIN and CRAM-MD5 capabilities.

Is it possible to enable PLAIN auth also as we need it?

(Please note that LOGIN is not any more secure than PLAIN, it's only a base64 encode ...)

I also tried on port 465 (ssl submission) with no luck:
EHLO youhou
250-SIZE 52428800
250-AUTH LOGIN CRAM-MD5
250-8BITMIME
250-DSN
250 OK
