OPTIONAL SMTP AUTH CONFIGURATION
--------------------------------
-If you need all users to send mail via an upstream SMTP provider
-(your ISP, for example), and that ISP requires authentication,
-there are two variables that can be added to config_local.php
-that will specify a sitewide SMTP username and password.
-
-Set up SMTP authentication to the remote server according to the
-instructions above, then add the following to config_local.php,
-replacing <smtp_user> and <smtp_pass> with the username and password
-you'd like to use for the entire site:
-
- $smtp_sitewide_user = '<smtp_user>';
- $smtp_sitewide_pass = '<smtp_pass>';
-
-These values will be used to connect to the SMTP server as long
-as the authentication mechanism is something besides 'none', i.e.
-'login','plain','cram-md5', or 'digest-md5'.
+In SMTP authentication SquirrelMail uses user's login name and password. If you
+need all users to send mail via an upstream SMTP provider (your ISP, for
+example), and that ISP requires authentication, you can configure custom
+username and password. $smtp_sitewide_user configuration variable stores custom
+username used during SMTP authentication. $smtp_sitewide_pass stores custom
+password that is used during SMTP authentication, if $smtp_sitewide_user
+variable is not empty.
+
+SquirrelMail 1.5.0 and 1.5.1 stored these configuration variables in
+config_local.php. Newer SquirrelMail versions allow to configure them in conf.pl
+configuration utility.
+
+These configuration variables will be used to connect to the SMTP server as long
+as the authentication mechanism is something besides 'none', i.e. 'login',
+'plain', 'cram-md5', or 'digest-md5'.
