RE: [cobalt-users] SMTP authentification

["Paul Shuttleworth" <paul@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

AFAIK
SMTP does not use authentification, this is why you set pop before relay to
authenticate the user and allow them to send mail for a time period after
pop authentification.
You do of course need to have the user set up in the allow relay settings to
stop the server being an open relay for all, so this means that only
authorised domains are allowed to use smtp anyway.
This is a kind of authorisation I suppose.
