Package: exim4-config
Version: 4.50-6
Severity: important
You've changed the way /etc/exim4/conf.d/auth/30_exim4-config_examples
handles the case of unencrypted client-side authentication.
README.SMTP-AUTH says unencrypted passwords can be enabled "by setting the
appropriate macro as mentioned in the comments in the configuration file"
(30_exim4-config_examples). I can see the macro in
30_exim4-config_examples, it's called AUTH_CLIENT_ALLOW_NOTLS_PASSWORDS,
right? But no where does 30_exim4-config_examples explain how to set it.
Does it need to be set in 30_exim4-config_examples or in
/etc/exim4/passwd.client? How is it set?
README.SMTP-AUTH says this will be explained in the comments, but it isn't.
Please add the required comments.
Thanks, Drew.
