Ok, upon closer examination my recollection is incorrect; Twisted will
always try CRAM-MD5 first.
As far as I can tell, you will need to sub-class the relevant classes
and disable the CRAM-MD5 support. Sadly, this will require using an
internal Twisted API, e.g.
from twisted.mail.smtp import ESMTPSender, ESMTPSenderFactory
from twisted.mail.smtp import LOGINAuthenticator, PLAINAuthenticator
class MyESMTP(ESMTPSender):
def _registerAuthenticators(self):
self.registerAuthenticator(LOGINAuthenticator(self.username))
self.registerAuthenticator(PLAINAuthenticator(self.username))
# monkeypatch hack!
ESMTPSenderFactory.protocol = MyESMTP
This can be done more cleanly, of course.
