 New Comment:

$conf['mailer']['params']['auth'] = 'PLAIN';
will "solve" the problem

please can anybody fix this bug since the latest horde-release does
change nothing, horde-devs calling my reports FUD as also calling this

there is NO authetication try on the server if using CRAM-MD5

The SMTP AUTH method selection code was rewritten for version 1.6.0. 
(The goal 
is to allow additional external AUTH methods to be registered with
Net_SMTP.)  The 
existing AUTH implementations, including DIGEST-MD5, should be the same
as in 
previous version of Net_SMTP.

Given that, these would be helpful next steps:

- Temporarily try a different AUTH method other than DIGEST-MD5.  LOGIN
and 
PLAIN are good candidates.

- Enable Net_SMTP's debugging mode (setDebug(true)).  This will dump the
full 
SMTP conversation to the output stream.  That will be very helpful in
determining 
where things are going wrong.  I unfortunately don't know the easiest
way to do 
that from within IMP.

And my apologies for introducing this problem in the first place.

Net_SMTP     1.5.2     stable
imp-4.3.9-3.fc14.rh.20110526.noarch

IMP is not changed because Horde4 is not a topic here this time
So the only change is Net_SMTP 

> we can use to 100% verify it is Net_SMTP which is the problem
it is becazse nothing other file is zouched on the system and it is the
only 
PEAR-package which is updated and after revert this the problem is
solved

Hi Harald,
Thanks for the report. Can I ask you to adjust your tone in future when
making bug reports; and include reproducible 
test steps - many of the people here are volunteers; and none of them
intentionally set out to break things for you.

Now what was the previous version of net_smtp you were using/have
currently restored to? 

$ pear list | grep Net_SMTP

At the very least, we can then look at all of the changes to identify
where potential regression occurred.

Secondly, can I get you to verify that the version of imp you were using
previously is 4.3.9 - there's a reasonable 
chance that configuration in is no longer set up the same way or
otherwise changed in some subtle way.

Thirdly, can I get you to try to make a small reproducible test case
using only Net_SMTP & the assorted credentials - we 
can use to 100% verify it is Net_SMTP which is the problem; and to prove
any fixes that are made are tested.
