Are Linux clients relaying using your SMTP box, or are they sending by themselves?

Eric, thanks for the suggestion, but that was not the solution... I will be reviewing the site you recommended to see if I can find a clue as to what this could be...
More info:
It is not just Outlook that I'm having problems with, it's anything Windows...
I have tried Outlook, Outlook Express, and Eudora - all were able to receive
mail but unable to send it.
Recap: I have a qmail box that I am only serving virtual mailboxes from using qmail+vpopmail. My Linux-based users report no problems, all is fine. My Windows-based users can check their mail but cannot send it. The log reports nothing wrong. The error reported by Outlook is the standard one about the domain not being listed in rcpthosts...
This has really got me baffled because the behavior is not consistent. I can't understand how it could work for Linux clients but not Windows... The OS shouldn't really be a factor...
