IMail will always support SMTP AUTH, so you can set it on the clients at any time (in essence, you've already migrated the server). If you use 'Relay for Addresses,' this implicitly includes 'Relay for AUTHed Sessions.' > 2) If I can set SMTP Authentication on the server first, will those clients > that connect directly to my network require setting this option prior to > being able to send mail? If there are clients who will continue to be in an allowed IP range using 'Relay for Addresses,' they will continue to be allowed to relay as soon as they connect. They could also send AUTH creds if they want, but they won't need to. > 3) Any advice for me as I implement this? There are some recent threads about precisely this migration that you'll want to look at. If you're NOT using 'Relay for Addresses' now, you will have additional issues that will complicate matters. You will also most certainly have issues if your users' new ISPs block them from using SMTP except for their ISP's gateway (in this case, you'll have to put something up on port 26 that can do AUTH--could be that IMail moves to 26 and MS SMTP goes to 25, or suchlike).
