That is, lkeusa.com asked to use SMTP authentication, but this would make sense if the email client connects directly to lkeusa.com for deliver the email. And this is not the case. The client connects to an intermediate server, the relay server, which is the one delivering the email to lkeusa.com. Or maybe I'm missing something? Kind regards, Daniel
