BAH! Ok, I've got it figured out now. For handy reference for other people:
1) Setup smtprelay.tab to be empty (or include only those IP addresses you need to allow, such as your local subnet). 2) Do not set SmtpConfig to mail-auth (leave it blank) 3) Set DefaultSmtpPerms to at least "MR" 4) THERE IS NOTHING ELSE TO DO!!! Step 4 is where I kept going wrong. I presumed that when the documentation referenced setting up Smtp Authentication, there was something in *Xmail* itself to configure. It's only the client. If a client authenticates, it will get the permissions automatically, nothing else to do. My bad. Thanks for all your help Davide, and in making such an excellent program available to the world.

What does this mean? I don't want to have to maintain two separate lists of authentication information, yet that's the only information I can find.
