Just curious, your provider requires authentication even if you are sending
from within their own subnet or IP range? I can understand SMTP AUTH if you
are dialing in from another provider, but if you are on their own network
they should not require authorization; it seems like a waste of bandwidth.
Most of the others on this list are more experienced than me so they will
probably be able to explain it. Sorry I don't have a helpful answer for you.
