smtp auth doesnt work after convert to dovecot

[tsiou]

After converting to dovecot smtp auth works but the users can send email even without smtp auth.
I want users to authenticate first before sending emails..
Anybody noticed that?

I noticed a bit of confusion in your post.

Your subject is: smtp auth doesnt work after convert to dovecot but the first line of your post states that smtp auth works.

Which is true?

I'm presuming the second, but if I change the subject of your post to stmpt auth works after convert to dovecot I don't think anyone would look at your post; it seems a bit obvious; it's supposed to work. And it does.

but the users can send email even without smtp auth.
I want users to authenticate first before sending emails..

DirectAdmin uses two methods of authentication. Users can either authenticate by standard SMTP authentication, or by popb4smtp authentication. The latter can be disabled; you can find a post with instructions here.
