Hi,

on my CentOS 5 is running DirectAdmin with da_exim-4.67-1. I wan't disable SMTP-Auth for my users.

I think that th relevant code from exim.conf is this:

Code:
# accept if message comes for a host for which we are an outgoing relay
# recipient verification is omitted because many MUA clients don't cope
# well with SMTP error responses. If you are actually relaying from MTAs
# then you should probably add recipient verify here

  accept  hosts = +relay_hosts
  accept  hosts = +auth_relay_hosts
          endpass
          message = authentication required
          authenticated = *
  deny    message = relay not permitted

How do i change it?
 
Why would you want to do that? You might as well add your ip to the blacklists right now.

Haha indeed, awesome reply!

Why whould you disable SMTP-Auth? If you can post also your server IP, then we can use your server to send mail, instead of our own server. It won't cost any bandwidth then for us :D
 
I want disable SMTP-Auth for using this server only as MX server. We have already setup a dedicated and separate SMTP Auth server.

Thanks
 
I don't remember what follows the section you've shown us. It may work, depending on what follows.

Why don't you just test?
