- SMTP auth
- Posted by Claudine L. on December 4th, 2003
Hi!
I need a very simple information.
If I telnet into an SMTP server, I would do:
HELO
MAIL FROM: (my address)
RCPT TO: (Recipient address)
DATA
..
But what would I do to authenticate on the server? I haven't seen any prompt
and I can't find the command used for user and pass.
Thanks!
Clo.

Well, I can tell you that RFC 821 doesn't mention anywhere SMTP auth, but
using the same idea I found RFC 2554, SMTP Service Extension for
Authentication
Just for your future references
