Hi all,

when at home,  I get a relaying denied message if I want to send a 
message over a sendmail server placed at my work.
Ofcourse this is the right way to configure. I have made use of a perl 
script once that scanned the mail log for "authenticated" messages and 
added the host the user came from to the relayed hosts for a period of 5 
minutes. Works fine but has a to high risk level.

There must be a better way, how can I get a popup window that asks for 
my password? I only can find something about sasl but even that seems to 
require a login to pop/imap.

Further more, I want to move from sendmail to postfix, all articles I 
have read latelly say that postfix beats sendmail in ease of use and 
reabillity. Do you agree or is there something tricky to say about 
postfix? Does postfix have a authentication module for sending email?


Bert.
