Thanks!
This was one of those things where I "Aha!'d" right after I sent the
message. So everything is working except one little thing: If I try to
send mail remotely from a local account to another local account, I am not
forced to use SSL. I would like to force this, but, "tls_hosts=*" does
the same thing - forces SMTP servers to use TLS, which most don't. This
also means that "local->local" mail is not authenticated. I can claim to
be "bill" even if I'm not.
Any quick insight on this one?
Thanks again,
Chris
