Topic: Remote SMTP Authentication

[MikeH]

If this is still the wish list area then I wish we had back Remote SMTP Authentication and Remote SMTP Authentication over SSL, including a user panel in the server manager. We had this in SME 5.6 and our business clients will not use Webmail on SME 6 for email! SME 6 has some nice features and a good feel to it but without Remote SMTP Authentication we have had to revert back to SME 5.6 until somebody comes along with a contrib that works.

Thanks for this it works like a dream.
Only snag was that using Update in Server-Manager the RPMs were installed in the reverse order to what is listed here so as to avoid install errors.
Many thanks once again!
