Kami, Eric Shanbrom from IPSwitch told me that they would be adding a new line to the Q*.SMD queue files which would indicate whether the SMTP session was authenticated. The line would begin with an "A" and contain the Authorized User that sent the email. This line would get added by STMPD32 if the user AUTHed, or by IMail1 when using imail1.exe to send emails (from IWebMsg or command line).
Eric originally said this would be added in v7.14, but it was not. Perhaps it was added in v8.0; however, we're not running 8.0 yet so I don't know if it was actually added or not. But if it was, this would make it possible for Scott to add a test that flags authenticated SMTP sessions.

Right? Wrong? I guess if there was a way to mandate emails with From addresses that exist in the server have to pass certain criterion before being considered legitimately from the sender. One such test is simply knowing all the users on the server and treating those with certain criterion. Is there anyway this can be flagged or a header added for emails that are coming from the local user base and if so if they are authenticated or not?
