when you say i need SMTP-AUTH that , of course, is reffering to a setting in the mail client
example: outlook expresstools , accounts , mail , properties , server - outgoing mail server requires log on with auth
...and I am doing that ... but not through port 587sorta funny... ya know i kinda thought you HAD to use ports 25 & 110 ...as in
the mail packets would not fit through any other hole :) oh well..learnsomethingneweveryday Thanks!----- Original Message ----- From: "Jake Vickers" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>

I have not tried itbut should this work?1. in my firewall (a cisco hardware firewall ) i open port 587 to the mail server... 2. then from an outside my domain location ( at home - users on the road )i change my outgoing mail (smtp) from port 25 ( default ) to 587 and that would be expected to work?Yep. Works for me. You still need SMTP-AUTH, though.
