I wanted to know they would not block it, or refuse the relay, because

would be coming from our server. All the email for this cust is
xxx@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
The web server www.grandwestern.com is our iSeries (and i had nothing

to do

with the build of the 2 page p.o.s.). The isp AT&T is handling the
email for the desktops.
(at other sites with Exchange servers, I've always had to ask the

Exchange

admin to allow the relay).

If your iSeries is delivering the mail directly to the recipient's mail
servers, then AT&T won't have any effect on it.

The only time ISP mail servers become iffy is if the email sender is
outside their network. Then they require authentification to connect.
This is accomplished by installing a plugin in exchange, I have no idea
how to configure the iSeries mail server to do it.
