I assume this is something like mail.verizon.net or smtp.verizon.net, as that's a fairly standard set up. Both exim3 and exim4 support client side smtp auth. What you need to ask verizon is not what their 'authorization address' is, but what to use as your outgoing mail server. Changing versions of your MTA software is not to likely to produce any change if you don't know where to route the mail to. Exim4 is *much* nicer than exim3, but the set up is different. Be prepared to rewrite your config files if you really want to upgrade. -- -------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Stephen Gran | Those who educate children well are | | steve@lobefin.net | more to be honored than parents, for | | http://www.lobefin.net/~steve | these only gave life, those the art of | | | living well. -- Aristotle | -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Attachment:
