Summary: Replies Through Localhost Fail Authorization
Product: kmail
Version: 1.9.6
Platform: unspecified
OS/Version: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
AssignedTo: kdepim-bugs kde org
ReportedBy: d_baron 012 net il
Version: 1.9.6 (using KDE 3.5.6, compiled sources)
Compiler: Target: i486-linux-gnu
OS: Linux (i686) release 2.6.21-rt1-davidb
I send email from Kmail using localhost and exim4 does the rest. Since I have a dynamic IP, I smarthost through my "provider". Recently they started requiring authorization. So I finally got exim4 to do this (not the easiest thing to configure but that's another story :-))
Sending mail now works fine. However, when I reply, authorization most always fails! Exim apparently does not know a reply from anything else in this context. So there is apparently something in the headers from kmail causing this. Strange one.
Resending from "sent mail" will work on the first or second try.
BTW (this may be a bug for "konstruct"): I could not try authorization bypassing exim because this capability does not get compiled into kmail.
