MDaemon Force AUTH PLAIN

hello list,

I am using MDaemon 7.1 Std. Ed., recently my ISP did some changes on
their mail server and now my SMTP AUTH has changed to CRAM MD5 from
PLAIN, i talked to my ISP, he says that i need to force AUTH PLAIN on
MDaemon, as all is working well at their end and no one else have
complained.

below is the log that i sent to my ISP

the other solution he provied was the enable "Send message using
STARTTLS whenever possible", but as i am using Std. Edition this
feature is not available with me.

Isn't there any way to force AUTH PLAIN instead of CRAM MD5

thanks

It is an error for the semicolon to appear in the server's challenge string.
Unless you've made a typo when cutting/pasting this log, this is a bug in
the mail server, but in that case your client should not've even bothered to
respond.
