Question concerning Availability of INN Windows Newsreaders with SASL

[Chandler, Carolyn R [US] (MS)]

Oh, thank you.  I am getting "no_success_auth" errors, and so when I looked at the specs for SeaMonkey and didn't see SASL, I thought perhaps the client needed to support it, but did not.   I must just have something misconfigured.  Thank you for pointing me in the right direction.  Appreciate the help!

Carolyn
