Dear list,
I've recently installed Suse 9.0, and I accepted the default MTA, postfix.
Only problem is that my smtp server won't auth with it - says a suitable
mechanism isn't found. I telnetted to my smtp server and found that PLAIN
is the only auth mechanism supported. I used yast to set up the outgoing
mail, and I enabled SMTP auth using their dialogs. I attach a tail of my
/var/log/mail file.
Any advice is appreciated.
Mike
