Here is the situation: I have an account on a service which does not have any dialup access. I dial into my ISP to get to the net, and then what I want to do is fetch my mail directly from the new service instead of my ISP, which works fine, and send my mail to the smtp on the new service instead of the smtp of my ISP. The difficulty is that the new service expects me to authenticate and I am trying to figure out how to do that. They let me send mail to other addresses on their domain, but when I try sending mail through the new service's smtp to someone outside their domain, such as my own address at my ISP, the new service bounces it with error 554, relay not permitted. I think I am getting close to a solution, but I am not there yet. I have my sendmail configured to use the access data base and have put "AuthInfo:" information in it, as the docs suggest, but evidently that is not enough to inform my new service of who I am. At the moment I have finessed the problem by using my ISP's smtp server with masquerading to make my "from" address look like it's coming from the new service. What I want to do if possible is to avoid my ISP's smtp and pop3 servers entirely, relying on the new service for smtp and imap servers.
