I second Ron's suggestion.

I use this configuration for a number of network processes that send status
emails but cannot support SMTP AUTH (ie, APC network management, syslog
daemon, IPCheck network monitoring, etc) and it works very well.  Since the
CF email should have a source machine of the internet server, which should
be a local machine, I think this will work for you.

Use "Relay for Addresses", and enter the IP of your CF server. That's the
same as "No Mail Relay", except your specified IPs will be allowed to
relay w/o SMTP AUTH.

Ok.


> checked -- refuse NULL <> Senders

Not RFC compliant, since valid postmaster messages might get blocked. And
you might get blacklisted by RFC-nazis (No relay for you! One year!)


> checked -- check valid sender
> checked -- auto-deny possible hack attempts

Ok.


> NOT checked -- disable SMTP "VRFY" command
> NOT checked -- disable SMTP "AUTH" reporting

Ok. Important to keep the first of those two always UNchecked when
requiring SMTP AUTH.
