That said sendmail has the ability to auth against many different mechimesims. You would need to look at what mechimesims are available on the remote server and see if sendmail supports it. > > Example: > > 1.

Once authorized, they can relay through this host. That is the point of authorization. Here is a link for using Cyrus SASL2 for sendmail auth. http://www.jonfullmer.com/smtpauth/ > > Thanks > > Dave > > ______________________________________________________________________ > This email has been scanned by the MessageLabs Email Security System. > For more information please visit http://www.messagelabs.com/email > _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ > http://lists.clamav.net/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/clamav-users > -- Ken -- Ken Jones [EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________ http://lists.clamav.net/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/clamav-users
