I'm not questioning its reliability, just that requiring access to a
POP/IMAP server simply to send mail is inflexible, as Jessica's

An RFC standard method for authenticating SMTP users is already
available. If the ISP had adhered to the standard, I could have
solved her problem with 5 minutes of coding.
