Hi,
I've read numerous posts and bug entries but I still have a problem. I suspect my problem is one of configuration (confusion) rather than an actual bug.
I am commonly faced with two scenarios and I hope for clarification on what settings I need for each case.
Also, if it is possible to create an exception, rather than a system-wide reconfiguration, I would prefer that as I appreciate the goals of the new mail configuration changes since version 7.5.
As I understand the new default SMTP configurations:
1) The SMTP transparent proxy is enabled by default, unless an upstream smarthost is used.
2) SMTP Authentication is required to send mail to any outside domain (not hosted on the SME Server).
3) SSL or TLS is required for SMTP Authentication.
Here are the use cases where I wish clarification:
A box on the local network (router, firewall, backup server, etc.) needs to be able to send mail (to an outside domain).
1) The box cannot do SMTP Authentication.
2) The box can do SMTP Authentication, but can't do SSL or TLS.
This is a big problem for me.
Thanks in advance for any assistance.
