IMAP Authentication Error - Target name and hostname missing
Problem reported by Gregor Mendelson - 10/29/2024 at 4:49 PM

SmarterMail Enterprise
Build 9008

We're seeing a lot of the following IMAP/NTLM errors:

- IMAP NTLM; AuthenticateMessage; Target name and hostname missing 
- IMAP NtlmAuthenticate Login failed: NTLM; AuthenticateMessage; Target name and hostname missing.
 
This is a relatively new issue that we've seen over the last few months. 

What is the target name and hostname referring to?

Hey Gregor, 

In version 9049 we released the following
  • Fixed: Administrator logs is showing a null reference exception related to NTLM
I recommend that you upgrade and see if this still appears in your logs. 

Kind Regards,
