There isn't a server in the internet side, there are only mail clients that
send mails through an outgoing smtp server using port 1300. Those clients
work ok. I need that those clients been authenticated to send mail through
this server, in other words, enable the "smtp outgoing server requires
authentication" option in the client to send mail.

Regards,
Christian
