Re: [Evolution] working tls support?

[Igor Testen <bulk itesten com>]

Ok, I got it to work now, using the "Login" authnetication type and "use 
secure connection whenever possible". The only question remaining is 
that when I let evolution check which authentication types are 
supported, it also tells me that CRAM-MD5 is supported (which I was 
assuming anyway, since I set up qmail that way).

But when I use CRAM-MD5 as authentication I get: "Unable to authenticate 
to SMTP server. Bad authentication response from server."

Any clues why? Or perhaps how I could turn the logging on for a smtp 
session (from evolution)?

Regards. Igor
