Definition

property AuthType: TSmtpAuthType;

Inherited from TCustomSmtpCli.AuthType

Description

Property AuthType specifies the authentication methode to be used with method Auth. Possible values are:

smtpAuthNone,    smtpAuthPlain,     smtpAuthLogin,
smtpAuthCramMD5, smtpAuthCramSha1,  smtpAuthAutoSelect

Most of them are self-explaining, except smtpAuthAutoSelect which causes the component to perform a smart detection of most secure authentication method possible.

see also RFC 2554, RFC 1734

Example

SmtpCli1.AuthType := smtpAuthAutoSelect;

Best practices

Recommended setting is smtpAuthAutoSelect.
