The tutorial says that i should telnet to localhost 25, the ehlo localhost 25, if i see the lines
Code:
250-STARTTLS
250-AUTH
then everything is fine... however, i see the lines...

Code:
250-STARTTLS
250-AUTH NTLM LOGIN PLAIN DIGEST-MD5 CRAM-MD5
250-AUTH=NTLM LOGIN PLAIN DIGEST-MD5 CRAM-MD5
and the authentication doesn't work for sending mail... ??
