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 metho d is
CRAM-MD5. If CRAM-MD5 is not available, LOGIN or PLAIN will automatically be us ed.
Once Eudora discovers that your SMTP server allows authentication an d when you send
messages, a dialog appears that prompts you to enter a password.

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 ha ve any difficulties.
