ASL 5.100 Smarthost doesn't work any more

wk_03
Hi,
 after updating to 5.100 our smarthost doesn't accept our mails any more.

The log shows:
R=smarthost T=remote_smtp defer (0): expansion of "${readfile{/etc/exim.conf.smarthost_auth}{" failed in server_login authenticator: missing } at end of string

The address, username and password are OK.

Switching off the smarthost helps for some mails, but t-online only accept mails via smarthost.

    Does your smarthost support both PLAIN and LOGIN methods?

    You can check by telnetting to port 25, and type "EHLO test". It should then say "AUTH LOGIN" and/or "AUTH PLAIN" somewhere.

    Please check this, then I can help [:)]

    OK, I think I know what the problem is.

    Try this:

    1) Get root shell on ASL
    2) cd /var/chroot-smtp/etc/
    3) joe exim.conf
    4) Scroll down to the end of the file
    5) Line number 373 should be this:

    Code:

    client_send = ${readfile{/etc/exim.conf.smarthost_auth}{:}}


    6) Double the colon, like this:

    Code:

    client_send = ${readfile{/etc/exim.conf.smarthost_auth}{::}}


    7) Save the file and exit (CTRL-K-X)

    Try sending mails now. Does it work?

    R=smarthost T=remote_smtp defer (0): SMTP error from remote mailer after AUTH LOGIN ************************: host xxxxxx [xx.xxx.xx.xxx]: 334 UGFzc3dvcmQ6
