Hi,<BR>
<BR>
I was wrong about the password length limitation.<BR>
<BR>
Some passwords are not making it through the setup.<BR>
<BR>
I captured the communications to show the problem.<BR>
<BR>
using password Abcdefgh99 the log shows the following <BR>
communications.<BR>
<BR>
<BR>
220 sys58.mail.msu.edu ESMTP Exim 4.75 Thu, 10 May 2012 12:51:00 -0400

<BR>
<BR>
You notice that just above the line<BR>
<BR>
"535 Incorrect authentication data"<BR>
<BR>
The first log shows a successfully base64 encoded<BR>
password, but the 2nd log shows a blank line.<BR>
Maybe this problem is in the xsane-setup.c file.<BR>
I will look at it when I have more time, but <BR>
perhaps someone on the development team can spot<BR>
the problem sooner than I could.<BR>
<BR>
thanks !<BR>

Hi,
There seems to be a name and/or password length limitation of 8 chars
for sending scans to an email account.
I would like to increase this to at least 16 chars and recompile the
current version of xsane. If you can help me find the code that needs
to be changed, I would appreciate it.
In the future , it would be useful if xsane email settings allowed
passwords longer than 8 chars.
Thank you,
Barry
