250-AUTH=NTLM PLAIN LOGIN DIGEST-MD5 CRAM-MD5
I don't have this second line on Sendmail 8.12.9 - am I missing something?
No, it is for (again) broken clients which are using "AUTH=". Some kind of legacy auth.
Is it for sure that O and OE cannot use DIGEST-MD5? Why do they try at all? Is DIGEST-MD5 actually working on your IMAP? Try "imtest".
DIGEST-MD5 works. I am using it every day with Mulberry.
With the latest installments, you should be able to use Kerberos5 as well (GSS-API), since Active Directory uses it as an authentication engine. Maybe *that* will help you sort out M$ sillyness...
Our mail servers don't have any GSS-Modules installed. And we don't want to support it as well.
Thanks for your reply! I'll try my luck with the plugin files ordering :-)
