Package: kmail
Version: 4:4.4.11.1+l10n-1
Severity: normal


Since upgrading to kmail 4.4.11 SMTP-Auth is broken.

Sniffing the traffic between kmail and the server shows, kmail does not even try smtp auth even if the server supports it.

While sending emails a weird sasl error is displayed:

"an error occured during authentication: SASL(0): successfull result:"

I did try to install/reinstall the whole SASL Libraries, changed from mit to heimdal and back, reinstalled kmail, re-configured the smtp-server.
Tryed with another client (this worked, so it's not the server).

I have no clue what goes wrong, I suppose a bug.

In the meantime a stigi update seems to have solved the issue....
Well, that's the only thing which changed in the meantime and now smtp auth
works again with kmail.

I confirm this bug too. On my desktop Kmaiil cann't sent message even
by insecure SMTP. On my notebook installed the same version of Kmail
but without libsasl updates and all was fine. After libsasl updates
Kmail on notebook refuse to send messages and display simular error
message. I attached some information about subject packages:

kmail: 4:4.4.11.1+l10n-1 (current)
libsasl2-2: 2.1.24~rc1.dfsg1+cvs2011-05-23-4 (current)
libsasl2-2: 2.1.23.dfsg1-8 (working lib)

Best regards,
Nepochatov Staniclav

Hello

sorry about the bug report. The problem was triggered by something else...

...a dhcp server not supplying the 'domain' option. If /etc/resolv.conf misses
a domainnamen, SASL doesn't work.
