What's your objection to authenticated SMTP? It already exists, and clients
support it. All my users use it.
About the only hitch is that I have to configure the server twice in
Mozilla. (It would be nice to have a checkbox to say that the SMTP info is
the same as the IMAP info, except for port number.)
