Note: This version requires Authen::SASL. If you want to want to go
without, use version Net::SMTP_auth 0.05.

FURTHER NOTE: Net::SMTP can do authentication by itself (with a 
different Syntax)

Can someone please provide me with a SMTP account on a 
maschine using DIGEST-MD5 or NTLM for testing?

--------
Abstract
--------

Net::SMTP_auth is a small extension to G. Barr's Net::SMTP
to authenticate to an SMTP server using one of the AUTH
methods provided by Authen::SASL (see RFC2554 for details).
This module can be expanded and is a very first implementation.

------------
Requirements
------------

This module requires:
 
   - Net::SMTP (should be obvious)
   - MIME::Base64
   - Digest::HMAC_MD5
   - Authen::SASL
   - Authen::NTLM (optional for NTLM)

The requirements are encoded in Makefile.PL.  

------------------
Basic Installation
------------------

Net::SMTP_auth may be installed through the CPAN shell in the
usual CPAN shell manner.  This typically is:

  $ perl -MCPAN -e 'install Net::SMTP_auth'

You can also read this README from the CPAN shell:

  $ perl -MCPAN -e shell
  cpan> readme Net::SMTP_auth

And you can install the component from the CPAN prompt as well:

  cpan> install Net::SMTP_auth

-------------------
Manual Installation
-------------------

Net::SMTP_auth can also be installed manually.  

Download the package from:
http://alex.zeitform.de/smtp_auth/

Downloading and unpacking the distribution are left as exercises for
the reader.  To build and test it:

  perl Makefile.PL
  make test

When you're ready to install the component:

  make install

It should now be ready to use.
