Use of ntlm_sasl_client in PHPMailer

Manuel,

I'm looking at adding NTLM support in the next rev of PHPMailer and the ntlm_sasl_client.php package is just what I need.

I see that it's BSD licensed but still wanted to see if you had any issues if I used and bundled the package in PHPMailer (with attribution, of course).

No problem. A link back to the SASL class would be nice though.

Hi there

I'm struggling to get the PHPMailer work with NTLM, please help me out.

What additional libraries / files should I use?

I've installed PHP+Apache on windows 2008 R2 and there is a MS Exchange server which need to relay the email.

when I do telnet to the host it connects on 25 port and shows me the auth type as 250-Auth NTLM

I've never used this in past, any help would be greatly appreciated.

Sorry, I cannot help you with PHPMailer because I do not use it, you would need to ask its author.

I use the MIME message class that I also wrote and it works well with the SASL. If you would like to try it, take a look here:

phpclasses.org/mimemessage

phpclasses.org/smptclass

Thanks for a blazing fast reply.

can I use your SMTP class and send mails by authenticating the MS Exchange server? Auth-NTLM?

Yes, you should use the SMTP class in conjunction with the MIME class for composing the message according to the e-mail standards and the SASL class for NTLM authentication.

i've downloaded the script and trying to execute them. I'm getting Authentication Unsuccessful message.

I'm giving the following, please confirm if they are correct

$smtp->user="SMTP USER NAME, WHICH IS EMAIL ID";
$smtp->realm="THE DOMAIN OF THE EMAIL ID, domain.com";
$smtp->password="EMAIL PASSWORD";
$smtp->workstation="networkdomain\WORKSTATION NAME";
$smtp->authentication_mechanism="NTLM";

The user name and password are the ones used to login in your Windows workstation for the requested Windows domain.
