Using SMTP Authentication

SMTP authentication operates automatically in Eudora.

Eudora can log in to an SMTP server when sending mail, just like it does for receiving mail. Not all SMTP servers require or allow such authentication. Eudora will attempt authentication to servers that allow it. The preferred SMTP authentication method is CRAM-MD5. If CRAM-MD5 is not available, LOGIN or PLAIN will automatically be used. Once Eudora discovers that your SMTP server allows authentication and when you send messages, a dialog appears that prompts you to enter a password.

If for some reason yo prefer that Eudora not attempt to login to your SMTP server, you can tell it not to do so by doing the following.

1From the Tools menu, choose Options, then Sending Mail. The Sending Mail options window appears.

2Turn off the Allow Authentication.

3Click OK.

Important. If you turn off the Allow Authentication option, you may not be able to send mail. Please check with your email administrator or ISP if you have any difficulties.
