AFAIK, RTMT cannot be authenticated. I wouldn't trust a windows solution, especially a free/low cost one.
To me, an SMTP appliance is no better than me installing linux and setting it up, unless it is smart enough to auto update itself and protect itself (install and forget). I'd hate for one of my customers to have issues with an email server getting compromised and spamming out their network. But, you pointed me to just googling an smtp appliance, which I didn't think to do, and found this article at google : https://support.google.com/a/answer/176600?hl=en which details SMTP relay to google with various options. Has anyone used this and how reliable is it? Good thoughts, but let's see if someone else has ideas.
