I doubt your ISP is going to let you use their SMTP server without authentication. Very few people are running open relays these days. If "auth on" doesn't work, try "auth plain" or "auth login", but be aware that you will be sending your password in the clear. Does you're ISP have any instructions on setting up email for different mail clients like Outlook or Thunderbird? You can usually get the information you need to get STARTTLS working from that. -- John -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
