Hi all!
My ISP sent me an username and password to use it in my Outbound SMTP… but where do I have to use it? I’ve been searching in all configuration documents I see, but I cannot find where to do it…
Please, help…
Thank you in advance.

You can’t do it with domino. Even Domino 7 doesn’t support outgoing SMTP-Auth.Workaround:
Set up another mta (e.g. postfix), who supports outgoing smtp-auth and use this mta as smart host in domino, so all outgoing mails are routed through the secondary mta.

SmartHost is for inbound. Relay is for outbound. Not sure why, but I’m seeing a lot of continuing confusion over those two features.
Apart from that, you’re correct. If you have a server connected to an ISP that (a) requires that your server relay through theirs, and (b) requires SMTP Auth to use that relay, you either need a new ISP (or a higher level of service from your existing ISP), or you need to provide your own relay that can be configured to do the SMTP Auth.

Sorry, you are correct Rich.Seems I looked up the wrong line in my config doc.
