SMTP Authentication on smtp_forward and smtp_proxy not working

[salvop]

SMTP authentication on smtp_forward and smtp_proxy is not working, smtp queue are always started without issuing authentication to relay provider. Also documentation is lacking on this.

Module is almost useless without authentication to relay.

Ok - I've just read the code and yes, the docs haven't kept up with the features added and the multi-domain configuration that was added has really confused how the authentication works. Can you confirm that the following in smtp_forward.ini or smtp_proxy.ini works for you.

host=1.2.3.4

[auth]
type=plain
user=auth_username
pass=auth_password

and can you also try this:

host=1.2.3.4
auth.type=plain
auth.user=auth_username
auth.pass=auth_password

Let me know and I'll document it.

Actually - I think the latter example won't work at all, but if you can confirm that please.

I tried and in both cases auth data are not passed to smtp client. below you can see output from console:

[INFO] [queue/smtp_forward] forwarding to smtp.sendgrid.net:587

Any workaround???

Can you gist your smtp_forward.ini file please?

Hmm, this wasn't working for me, so either I'm missing something or it wasn't working - for the moment I've patched this in my branch, https://github.com/glg/Haraka, but I probably don't know enough to do this "correctly"... anyway, it case it's useful to someone...
