While I am sure there is a way to do authenticated smtp with that version i have only had it work with exim4. There are debian packages for exim4 in testing and unstable. Using exim4 there is a file called /etc/exim4/passwd.client where you just put the name of your smarthost and your username/password to log in. If you don't want to update your whole system to testing or unstable there are backports of exim4 for woody if you look on www.apt-get.org. HTH - -- Hardware: The part you kick.
