Pine & SMTP Authentication

Pine & SMTP Authentication

[Steve Holmes]

    I recall seeing this on this list a ways back but can't find it now.
How does one specify the user and password for an outbound SMTP connection
for Pine?  I can see how to specify the user but password seems to not be a
valid /option.  I keep getting either "cannot authenticate 535" or "invalid
specifier".

Any ideas?
Thanks.

I could not figure that out either. I let my sendmail program do
the authentication.

Well, this is a win2k box here at the office.  I dropped in pcpine so I
could get away from that God awful Outlook Xpress.  We use Outlook 2k for
e-mail at the office but it won't work with IMAP so I think the only
programs I know of that do IMAP on winblows is pcpine and Outhouse
Distress!:).  PC Pine is actually pretty good.

I just put the user name in, and just enter the password each time, but 
this is using imap so I only have to do it once per session.

Cheers.

Pine has smtp validation?  excilent, when you find out how to get it working
will you mail me with it?

I might switch over as smtp validation in mutt seems to be very difficult.

Ahh, but this is to a separate SMTP server for outbound only.  It uses
a separate user/password pair.  I use this at my office so I call home
to my IMAP server to get inbound mail but to send it out, I have to
use a separate mail server that I have access to.  I had no trouble
doing this with outlook express but can't seem to get it done with
pc-pine.  When I just supply the user string as in /user=id, I never
get prompted for a password.  I wonder if pine is trying to use my
IMAP password over here on the SMTP box.
