Default Outlook Express not sending authinfo pass anymore

Outlook Express is no longer sending AUTHINFO PASS for authentication anymore
on my outlook express client. My putting a breakpoint on the ws2_32.send
API, I can see that it is connecting to the NNTP server and sending AUTHINFO
USER requests but then goes to the GROUP command without any AUTHINFO PASS.
This just started happening after performaing automatic updates.

Does anyone know how to resolve this? Thanks!

Here is the output of the log for the nntp access. One can clearly see that
it is missing the AUTHINFO PASS transmission.

Tools, Accounts, Mail, Properties, Server. Make sure that This server
requires me to logon is checked and that you have filled in the logon
name and password below that.

Default Outlook Express not sending authinfo pass anymore

Yep, the logon box is checked and the username and password are filled out.

Also, if you see from the log (attached in previous email I sent), it is
sending the AUTHINFO USER information but seems to jump right into the GROUP
command before transmitting an AUTHINFO PASS with the password for some
reason?!? This was working just fine until an update from Microsoft.

I even tried unchecking the save password and entering the password when
prompted but that didn't help -- still no AUTHINFO PASS transmission.

I have verified by logging into port 119 of the server and going through the
authorization that nothing is wrong on the server side and I can access the
emails.

It almost seems to me that Outlook Express for some reason after update is
for some reason missing AUTHINFO PASS transmissions.

It looks like your NNTP server does not respond correctly to the
AUTHINFO USER.

Here's a log from a server that I use that uses a login:

Microsoft Internet Messaging API 6.00.2900.3028
(xpsp_sp2_gdr.061107-0012)
NNTP Log started at 02/26/2007 11:39:53

207.46.248.111
NNTP: 11:39:54 [rx] 200 NNTP Service 6.0.3790.1830 Version:

NNTP: 11:39:54 [tx] AUTHINFO PASS *********
NNTP: 11:39:54 [rx] 281 Authentication ok

According for RFC 2980,

281 Authentication accepted
381 More authentication information required

The server is supposed to respond with the 381 code if it wants a
password. The 281 that your server gives after the AUTHINFO USER
indicates that no password is required. That's why OE goes on with the
next command.

Got the issued resolved. Thanks for you help! Problem was that they added a
new group to the list which did not need a password thus it was not
responding with 281 after authinfo user. They modified it so that a password
was required for that group and now it is responding with 381.

Thanks,

AUTHINFO USER.

Here's a log from a server that I use that uses a login:

Microsoft Internet Messaging API 6.00.2900.3028
(xpsp_sp2_gdr.061107-0012)
NNTP Log started at 02/26/2007 11:39:53
NNTP: 11:39:53 [db] Connecting to 'privatenews.microsoft.com' on
port
119.
NNTP: 11:39:54 [db] srv_name = "privatenews.microsoft.com"
srv_addr =
207.46.248.111
NNTP: 11:39:54 [rx] 200 NNTP Service 6.0.3790.1830 Version:
6.0.3790.1830 Posting Allowed
NNTP: 11:39:54 [tx] MODE READER
NNTP: 11:39:54 [tx] AUTHINFO USER XXXXXXXXXXXX
NNTP: 11:39:54 [rx] 381 Waiting for password
NNTP: 11:39:54 [tx] AUTHINFO PASS *********
NNTP: 11:39:54 [rx] 281 Authentication ok

According for RFC 2980,

281 Authentication accepted
381 More authentication information required

The server is supposed to respond with the 381 code if it wants a
password. The 281 that your server gives after the AUTHINFO USER
indicates that no password is required. That's why OE goes on
with
the
next command.

Yep, the logon box is checked and the username and password are
filled
out.

Also, if you see from the log (attached in previous email I
sent),
it
is
sending the AUTHINFO USER information but seems to jump right
into
the
GROUP
command before transmitting an AUTHINFO PASS with the password
for
some
reason?!? This was working just fine until an update from
Microsoft.

I even tried unchecking the save password and entering the
password
when
prompted but that didn't help -- still no AUTHINFO PASS
transmission.

I have verified by logging into port 119 of the server and going
through the
authorization that nothing is wrong on the server side and I can
access the
emails.

It almost seems to me that Outlook Express for some reason after
update is
for some reason missing AUTHINFO PASS transmissions.

Here is the output of the log for the nntp access. One can
clearly
see that
it is missing the AUTHINFO PASS transmission.

Outlook Express is no longer sending AUTHINFO PASS for
authentication
anymore
on my outlook express client. My putting a breakpoint on
the
ws2_32.send
API, I can see that it is connecting to the NNTP server and
sending
AUTHINFO
USER requests but then goes to the GROUP command without any
AUTHINFO
PASS.
This just started happening after performaing automatic
updates.

Does anyone know how to resolve this? Thanks!
