Authentication does not appear to be working for port 25 on my server.

503 5.5.1 Error: authentication not enabled

It seems to work with authentication via port 587, but not 25.

Any ideas?

Please enable TLS for smtp authentication, both port 25 and 587 are ok.

Hello,

I have the same problem. It is my first time to work with Linux. Can you explain how to enable TLS for smtp authentication?

Sorry for being a noob sad

It's enabled by default in iRedMail.
