Ben,
I would also like to add that you do not have to do anything special to enable this option.
If the sending user does not fit into your mail relay options then they will
need to send a username and password before being allowed to send external mail
through your server. Just to reiterate Jim's comments, it will not effect
incoming mail at all. IMail will always accept mail destined to a valid
user.

Jim,
Smtp authorization simply means that a user has to pass
their username and password before being allowed to send a message through
your system. They way you recieve mail is unchanged. Keep in mind
however that smtp authorization is not supported by all email clients,
outlooks supports it, for example, but Netscape Messenger does not. If
you enable it and your users do not have complient email clients they will not
be able to send mail.

[IMail Forum] How to enable use authentication for sending mail through
Imail SMTP server?
There is a Web page http://www.ipswitch.com/products/IMail_Server/nospam.html
saying that Imail version 5.0 can "Authenticate user s before allowing them to send mail through your
server (SMTP AUTH)." Can any one tell me how to do it?
I went to "Control panel | Imail server | SMTP Security tab" but found no
such feature. I will appreciate any help from
you.
