Description cerebro84 2004-09-14 21:01:33 UTC 
Version:           1.7 (using KDE 3.3.89 (CVS >= 20040820), compiled sources)
Compiler:          gcc version 3.3.2 (Mandrake Linux 10.0 3.3.2-6mdk)
OS:                Linux (i686) release 2.6.3-7mdk

I can't send emails. This is what I get: "Authentication support is not compiled into kio_smtp". It worked before.
Also, I can't access the settings window, because kmail crashes. I couldn't get everything useful but:

(gdb) run

Maybe related to Bug 67797?

I had similar problems with my hamburg.de account. A work-around for me was to disable the "Server requires authentication" setting.

I think it has to do with a sasl-library which has to be installed. But maybe a core developer can confirm this?
Comment 3 cerebro84 2004-09-15 20:51:25 UTC 
I don't thing it's related to 67797 because kmail doesn't try to authenticate at all, because the autenthication (he says) is not compiled into kio_smtp. Anyway, the server requires authentication, so I can't disable it, but also, if it didn't, my kmail crashes trying to open the settings window...
Comment 4 Tom Albers 2004-09-16 23:55:27 UTC 
Could you check if you have cyrus-sasl installed and if the kdebase configure has detected it? If not could you install that and rebuild kdebase and try again? Please let us know.
Comment 5 cerebro84 2004-09-17 17:37:44 UTC 
Ok, cyrus-sasl wasn't installed and now I installed it. But I've got a new error: "An error occured during authentication: SASL(-4): no mechanism avaible: No worthy mechs found".
Comment 6 Szombathelyi György 2004-09-18 01:24:27 UTC 
You didn't install cyrus-sasl plugins.
