Hi Andreas,

Not sure whether this helps but here we go:
Within Postfix i had to specify that
i needed broken_sasl support for clients
like outlook.

This gave me the following ehlo output:

250-AUTH LOGIN PLAIN
250-AUTH=LOGIN PLAIN

(stripped the rest). Perhaps you are able to get
something like that as well and then retry testing.

Hth,

Cheers!
