SMTP Authentication seems to be the norm these days, and I'd encourage it.
Now if only M$ would make it the default or easier than going into
advanced settings when adding an account (and also the port 587 option).
why use port 587? the 'use secure connection' is right there, and if you're
doing any passing of authentication tokens across the wire, you should be
encrypting it.
I have my clients use port 587 whenever possible, because I use RBLs on
port 25 that block some dynamic address ranges.
Is there a better practice for this?
