This bit of software hasn't been updated in a while but I used it recently to get an all-in-one printer that didn't know about authentication to talk to Office 365.

It can run as a service so once you have it configured you can pretty much leave it be.

Why not just install IIS on the box (via add/remove programs) and set up a smart host pointing to the remote smtp server and configure outbound security. Then set the app to send via localhost.

It's a bit of a pain to set up correctly, but it'll do what you want.

Looks good... reading the documentation now. Ta.

An SMTP relay might solve his problem: some s/w that runs on Windows and receives his unauthenticated SMTP messages and forwards these to his email provider with SMTP authentication.

I've Googled, didn't find anything (yet). Any ideas or solutions would be appreciated.

TIA.

EDIT. Of course I mean SMTP Relay (thread title). What a dummy! Mods, can you change?

Would take 5 min's to whip that up in C#, can he not program?
