I must admit that back in the 16th century the Catholic church was pretty opportunistic with it's power... This turned the Dark Ages darker. It certainly didn't give God a good name, especially in recent years... almost like in the 70's, Amway distributors went door-to-door in the US and were

There is none so blind as he who will not see (I'd like to teach the world to sing). A couple years ago, this was akin to trying to explain to a West-Michigan business that Linux was the way to go. They had made up their mind, probably from some Windows magazine, that it was a fad which

I really like the SuSE distro as a whole. I'm running 8.0 on a box or two. If they'd only make their all-emcompassing config tools play nicely with REAL config files, I might be able to run them as my main distro... But then I've already covered that one too many times so I'll shut up.

I'm not sure why you would be getting AUTH errors unless you had configured SMTP AUTH on the box. If you had done that, I would have to ask why Unless you are pumping all outbound mail through a provider which requires SMTP AUTH (like Yahoo.com) then I don't see a whole lot of use for SMTP
