smtp auth on SuSE 8.1 Does it Work??

I've been banging my head against the wall for two days on SuSE 8.1 and another server running SuSE 8.2 trying to get Smtp Auth to work with sasl. The servers all report that they support cram-md5 and Digest-md5 but authentication always fails. Has anyone gotten this to work? The Docs leave a great deal unsaid about what the actual values you would enter in something like Kmail or Pegasus. With more road warriers out there this is becomming essential and I wish SuSE would automate the procedure a bit... -- _____________________________________ John Andersen
