Author email form asking for login

I've got a form that emails it's results to me. Everything worked great
until I turned on authentication for my SMTP relay. Now when a user clicks
on the Submit button, they're asked for login credentials. How do I get the
form to provide appropriate credentials to send the email?

Best regards,
Bill

The FP forms to email does *not* support authentication and it won't work.

I can't believe there isn't some solution, or else everyone would have to
leave their SMTP relay open for SPAMmers to use. How does someone configure
the SMTP/POP3 servers that come with Windows 2003 to allow a web form to
send email without opening things up for everyone?

You restrict access to the SMTP server to the websites , either by name or
by IP, that are on the server. Then hope for the best.
