Cool. A "port = 587" statement in the appropriate SMTP transport (make sure
there's only one you use for dealing with that smarthost) should do the
trick.
Bill, in reading this whole thread, you've managed to completely confuse
the issues - well done!
Rob, one thing you should make sure of is that your hosting provider is
running a configuration on 587 that will *only* let you proceed to DATA
stage if you've authenticated (i.e. that there are no "local" domains for
that SMTP, so it treats everything as a relay attempt).
Cheers
