I solved this by putting my local network into smtprelay.tab (which allows 
me to send without authentication), then turning on:

"EnableAuthSMTP-POP3"   "1"

in the server.tab file. Then I have all my external mail clients enable 
SMTP authentication in their mail client software.

There may be other, better ways - but this one works for me...
