Hmm...on my Motorola Android Atrix phone, there is a standard, already 
built-in, application called 'Messaging' where you setup email accounts 
similar to most phone email setup. This is where the customer wants to 
setup his email. I just downloaded the latest iso and installed as a 
virtual server here at my location, applied all yum updates, setup a 
test site and test user, etc. I am getting the same error in the server 
mail logs and on the droid. Droid says 'Authentication error sending', 
but of course I have verified the credentials many times. The error in 
the BX maillog is...

May 25 18:36:34 localhost sendmail[4800]: STARTTLS=server, 
relay=[192.168.1.70], version=TLSv1/SSLv3, verify=NO, 
cipher=DHE-RSA-AES256-SHA, bits=256/256
May 25 18:36:34 localhost sendmail[4800]: p4PMaYlk004800: [192.168.1.70] 
did not issue MAIL/EXPN/VRFY/ETRN during connection to MSA

Also getting the same weird message with commands to the server using 
telnet from the phone...

500 5.5.1 Command unrecognized: ""


The email account settings for the Outgoing server on my Android are...

Server:  blueonyx.server
Port: 25
Username: test
Password: random_pass
Use secure connection is not checked
Verify connection is not checked

Those are all the settings and they work using a Thunderbird mail 
client. Must be the Android version I am using, can anyone verify if 
they are using Android OS version 2.2.2 and working SMTP with their BX 
server?
