Point your users to the "Extra SMTP Port" (587 by default) and require Auth
on that port

Subject: Re: [IMail Forum] SMTP Authentication
Maybe I'm missing something or thinking incorrectly, so I thought I'd send
this out for comments, opinions or a point in a specific direction.
I have relay setup for specific ip addresses only (a few local servers)
and beyond that, there is no relay allowed.
So a user in our domain(s) has to authenticate to send email beyond our
server. That is where the question begins.
Is there some way to make user connecting to authenticate for smtp for
both local mail and outbound? Given my
domain info for example - to send to ipswitch, I need to authenticate, but
if I send to ameripride I don't need to. I want
to have authentication for both the ipswitch email and the ameripride
email.
Is it possible?
no. Imail default config of port 25 always accepts mail for valid
accounts of Imail domains.
See Jonas Fornander's current thread "Solution to the 587 blues" about an
approach he is trying to get around force port 25 always to require SMTP
AUTH.
