I am unable to send my emails to this group on Kmail due to the following error:
"Authorization failed, Authentication support is not compiled into tdeio_smtp. authentication not supported"
I've had this problem on FreeBSD and Devuan before where my emails wouldn't send but never got an error message. Usually it would start to work after some time. But here I get this error consistently, I even tried to rebuild tdepim and tdelibs. I don't know which package has tdeio_smtp but the Slackbuild seems to build without this support.

may be it is something slack specific, because here I use KMail for around 10 accounts with authentication.
Why don't you raise this issue in the dev ML?
Or file a bug in TGW?
the tdeio_smtp is part of tdebase (tdeioslave)
It is something I have stumbled upon frequently with Ray-V's slackbuilds, and for some reason they refuse to change this behaviour.
Anyway, when building tdebase, you need to set the WITH_SASL flag.
Go to Core/tdebase and open tdebase.SlackBuild in your preferred text editor. Find the line that says -DWITH_SASL="OFF" and replace OFF with ON. Save and rebuild just tdebase normally (via BUILD-TDE.sh)
Hope this helps.

First email sent with kmail on here now (or at least testing). I would have never known this. Thanks! :-)
