Hello!

I'm trying to get SMTP accepting plain auth, but no success.

I set  "smtpd_tls_auth_only = no"  in  postfix main.cf
Also  "disable_plaintext_auth=no" and "ssl=yes"  in dovecot.conf

Any help will be truly appreciated.

Thank you so much,
Jorge.

What's your SMTP setting in mail client?

Hello!

Setting client for using SSL run OK.

But the customer needs not to use SSL for sending mails, and setting up port 25 (or 587) in plain mode with no SSL gets the client constantly ask for the password.

Thank you.

Why not use SSL/TLS for better security?
If you have to use port 25, just comment out 'smtpd_tls_auth_only =' in Postfix config file /etc/postfix/main.cf.
