Hi, the new mail server that i had set up, i locate a username:ldapuser and password:password to the SMTP AUTH and converted to base64 string. Then in my Thunderbird incoming server & outgoing server username, i put: ldapuser... and it works ok .....
But then when i try to add another username and password in the SMTP AUTH and when i test it by telneting to localhost port 25... it said AUTHENTICATION FAIL!!
how should i add another user??? Please advice...
Thanks
