Package: debian-reference
Version: 2.47
Severity: normal

I checked with yahoo.co.jp which still provides free pop3/smtp access to
their mail.  (Not in US but other asian countries, they do.)

Since it is simpler to use swaks, I used to it to check these free mail
status.

My optiocal connection blocks port 25.  So I checked situation.

gmail account name includes "@gmail.com"
gmail.com   port 587 SMTP -> STARTTLS -> AUTH  (-tls)
gmail.com   port 465 SSL  -> SMTP     -> AUTH  (-tslc)

yahoo account name excludes "@yahoo.co.jp"
yahoo.co.jp port 465 SSL  -> SMTP     -> AUTH  (-tslc)
yahoo.co.jp port 587 SMTP -> NOTLS    -> AUTH

Yahoo's port 587 availability is a bit hidden but exists in port 25
problem link :-)

* Solution for dc_use_split_config='true'
create /etc/exim4/conf.d/main/00_exim4-config_macro
---
AUTH_CLIENT_ALLOW_NOTLS_PASSWORDS=yes
---

* Solution for dc_use_split_config='false', create
 /etc/exim4/exim4.conf.localmacros
---
AUTH_CLIENT_ALLOW_NOTLS_PASSWORDS=yes
---

Note: MAIN_TLS_ENABLE = true"  is not needed for this.
      I should have checked myself ... agh...

Exim has option to accept SSL->SMTP as being server but noy for client.
