Need Help with sending email through SMTP with authentication

I am using LN 6.5.3. I am not a Notes Admin or Developer. I need help, have been working on this for awhile now.

We just put security on our groups to only allow certain people to be able to send to groups. Basically the people with permissions can only see the groups. This is all working fine within our network with people using LN clients.

The problem comes in when we try to send email through SMTP from asp.net pages. The allowed users get bounced back saying they are not allowed to send email to the group.

I think what is happening is that I send to SMTP server then SMTP is sending to LN as anoynomous, but not totally sure.

I also tried trying to use the Domino Object in my pages and use LN client, but I am getting a error that says “Could not open ID file.” Seems like a security context thing that I cant figure out.

Can anyone help me?
