Title: Remote SMTP user cannot authenticate

Yep...recommend you set that alternate port to 587.  That's the SMTP AUTH port according to the RFC.

From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Glenn Bullion Sent: Thursday, November 11, 2004 9:31 AM To: IMail_Forum Subject: [IMail Forum] Remote SMTP user cannot authenticate I mail my mail server to relay for local IP addresses only.  However, I have a laptop user who authenicates SMTP remotely.  Suddenly it won't connect.  The message Outlook returns is cannot find SMTP server, but he can receive messages fine.  Any idea where to begin?  Our firewall is setup correctly, is this some kind of timeout issue?
