[Bug 731658] New: sendmail cannot authenticate as client to various mail servers in TLS mode
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=731658 https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=731658#c0 Summary: sendmail cannot authenticate as client to various mail servers in TLS mode Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE 12.1 Version: Final Platform: All OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Network AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: andreas.osterburg@digide.net QAContact: qa@suse.de Found By: --- Blocker: --- User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux i686; rv:8.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/8.0 Sendmail 8.14.5 (used by openSUSE 12.1), as stated in its changelog (http://www.sendmail.com/sm/open_source/download/8.14.5/?show_rs=1#RS), reads at most two AUTH headers from the server. Some mail servers send 2 headers ("AUTH " and "AUTH=") after EHLO, so after issuing STARTTLS all AUTH lines are ignored and no authentication will be performed. The odd workaround is disabling TLS for such servers. Sendmail knows about the problem and offers a small patch which should be applied to the openSUSE-build.
