Set up relay authentication

If a relay server requires security authentication, set up SMTP authentication for the 
OPM
 plug-in. The 
OPM
 plug-in supports the three most commonly used SMTP authentication methods: LOGIN, PLAIN, or NTLM.
  1. In the 
    NDS
     console, navigate to 
    Management
     > 
    Configuration
    .
  2. In the navigation pane on the left, click to open the 
    nds.plugins.opm
     key.
  3. Locate 
    <OPMConfig><senderConfig><relayInfoList><RelayConfig> <relayAuthInfo>
     of the relay server you need to set up authentication for.
  4. Change the <isAuthNeeded> attribute to 
    true
    .
  5. Change <authMode> to one of the following values, based on the relay settings:
    • LOGIN: Requires the user to login.
    • PLAIN: Requires no user login.
    • NTLM: Requires login on Windows servers that use NT LAN Manager (NTLM).
  6. To enter the user name and password in clear text, change the value of <encryptCredential> to 
    false
    .
    When the 
    BlackBerry AtHoc
     delivery services starts 
    OPM
    , the username and password display with encrypted characters.
  7. Enter the relay server account username and password in clear text.
  8. Restart 
    NDS
     and 
    OPM
    .
OPM
 then reads and encrypts the username and password and saves them in the configuration file.
