John,

You can enable SMTP authentication on a Cisco PIX firewall with the command:
"no fixup protocol smtp 25"

Yes, we have a Cisco PIX. Now what?

John,

Is your local network behind a firewall? There are certain settings on some firewalls that will filter SMTP auth message (Cisco PIX is one example but not the only one)

That would explain why it works locally but not remotely.

There's no authenticated message in the second snippet.  You sure you turned on authentication on your home puter?

Hello,

 

I have our Imail server (216.125.247.228) running 8.21 version. We most recently changed the SMTP relay settings from Relay for local users only to No Mail Relay. This was to get removed from the ORDB database. This part was successful. We have been removed from that site.

 

After reading the white papers on this procedure, I had the clients running Outlook Express configure their client to Authenticate the outgoing server by checking the box "My server requires authentication". This worked great from our local network. The problem is that the authentication is not working when a client is outside of our local network using Outlook Express. I should also mention that Outlook Express is the only client I have tested this with.

 

Any help is truly appreciated.

 

Here are snippets from log files showing one from the internal network that works, and one from my home outside the local network that does not work.

 

This one worked from local network.
