Error 535 Authentication failed when using AuthPla - WeOnlyDo Discussion board

Error 535 Authentication failed when using AuthPla (wodSmtpServer / wodPop3Server / wodImapServer)

Hi,

I am writing an email server by using C# at the moment but I am having a problem when I use Plain Authentication.

The email client that I am using can support LOGIN, NTLM, CRAM MD5, PLAIN and MSN authentications.

On my code, I have used:-

Smtp.Authentication = SmtpAuthentications.AuthPlain;

and there is a method called 'Smtp_Authenticate' that is used to valid the username and password and decide the action.

Once I am using PLAIN authentication from this email client, I will have an error 535 Authentication failed displayed on the client. When I set a break point within my code, my server will not process the 'Smtp_Authenticate' method at all. It stops at another method called 'Smtp_Command'.

If I use User.Transcript property within this 'Smtp_Command' method, I will get the followings:-

User 127.0.0.1 issued command EHLO ABC
250-ABC Hello ABC [127.0.0.1], nice to meet you
250-EXPN
250-HELP
250-AUTH PLAIN
250-PIPELINING
250 8BITMIME
AUTH PLAIN

Would you please tell me what is happening at there? and how to solve this?

Thanks,
Yan.

Just thought you'd like to know that my gateway app with your SMTP Server component held the line against a DDOS attack today...

Thank you very much for the rapid responses. I was a little nervous about dealing with a company that is on a different continent from me. You have proven my concerns to be unfounded.

May I say how nice it is to work with components so complete and self-explanatory that using them in my application is as instinctive as though I wrote them myself?
