SMTPMail - Relay Authentication

[a]

Hi gang,

Is there anyway to authenticate to the SMTP Server before attempting to
send? I have 2 servers in my domain, on for email (SERVER2 - MS
EXCHANGE - W2K3) and one for web (SERVER1 - W2K3). The SERVER1 can send
mail internally using the SMTP server on SERVER2, but it can't send outgoing
mail that is external to our organization.

Any ideas?

Thanks!

Kevin

Yes, when you connect, you have to issue the EHLO command. I have an
ActiveX SMTP control that works nicely for both Exchange and SendMail 8.x
It's at http://www.tiberiansun.us/Projects I've never gotten the built-in
stuff (CDONTS) to work, so this was my solution after "telneting" to the
SMTP server.

Hi,

Based on my research, the current implementation of SmtpMail does not
support SMTP authentication.
You may try to use an third party component as a workaround.
