Chad,
Yes, I am configured to send through smarthost and I have
it configured for my ISP outbound mail server (I think)
smtp.earthlink.net and I have tried authentication as
well. Still no go.
Are you configuring SMTP connector for your outbound? I
only have 56k dial up to work with and have the conection
times set for on the hour and half hour during weekdays
and only on the hour for weekends. I think I am begining
to understand the correlation between exchange and
outlook, but the reason for not being able to send mail
still eludes me.
