`go-sasl` upstream added support [1] for the obsolete [2] AUTH LOGIN method which enables aerc to send email via servers which remain common in the wild. Fixes ~sircmpwn/aerc2#263 [1] https://github.com/emersion/go-sasl/commit/61afe53d [2] https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-murchison-sasl-login/

# NAME
|
|
|
|
aerc-smtp - SMTP configuration for *aerc*(1)
|
|
|
|
# SYNOPSIS
|
|
|
|
aerc implements the SMTP protocol as specified by RFC 5321.
|
|
|
|
# CONFIGURATION
|
|
|
|
SMTP configuration may be done interactively with the :new-account command.
|
|
|
|
In accounts.conf (see *aerc-config*(5)), the following SMTP-specific options are
|
|
available:
|
|
|
|
*outgoing*
|
|
smtp[s][+plain|+none]://username[:password]@hostname[:port]
|
|
|
|
Remember that all fields must be URL encoded. The "@" symbol, when URL
|
|
encoded, is *%40*.
|
|
|
|
The meaning of the scheme component is:
|
|
|
|
*smtp://*:
|
|
Unencrypted SMTP
|
|
|
|
*smtps://*:
|
|
SMTP with TLS/SSL
|
|
|
|
Additionally, you can specify an authentication mechansim like so:
|
|
|
|
*+none*:
|
|
No authentication is required to use this SMTP server. You may omit the
|
|
username and password in this case.
|
|
|
|
*+plain*:
|
|
Authenticate with a username and password using AUTH PLAIN. This is the
|
|
default behavior.
|
|
|
|
*+login*:
|
|
Authenticate with a username and password using AUTH LOGIN. This is an obsolete
|
|
protocol, but is required for some common webmail providers.
|
|
|
|
*outgoing-cred-cmd*
|
|
Specifies the command to run to get the password for the SMTP
|
|
account. This command will be run using `sh -c [command]`. If a
|
|
password is specified in the *outgoing* option, the password will
|
|
take precedence over this command.
|
|
|
|
Example:
|
|
|
|
pass hostname/username
