Encrypted Passwords for Exim
Posted: Fri Jun 13, 2014 6:52 pm
Hi guys,
I'm just working on the mailserver and already enabled ssl for exim and dovecot.
The only thing I'm still fighting with is exim to accept encrypted passwords.
Dovecot works with them already, but I cannot find information on how to enable them in exim.
I followed this thread and did the dovecot thing (which worked) - thank you google translate:
viewtopic.php?f=12&t=3811&p=6036&hilit=md5#p6036
But the exim configuration doesn't work and I always get the error:
How can I enable encrypted passwords in exim?
Or is this not necessary when using ssl?
thank you in advance
best regards
Simon
