Re: V5R4 SMTP Authentication

It is new for V6R1.

We recently (just over a week) switched from using the i as our mail
server to Google Apps Premier. I had to open a PMR to get everything
working correctly, but it has been wonderful since then.

I had to:

CHGSMTPA MAILROUTER("smtp.gmail.com") FIREWALL(*YES) ALWAUTH(*NONE)
FWDHUBSVR("smtp.gmail.com")

Set up a self-signed security certificate.

ADDSMTPLE TYPE(ACCEPT) INTNETADR('192.168.0.0') SUBNETMASK('255.255.0.0')

We use ESEND from Help Systems as well as the Advanced Job Scheduler
("AJS"). AJS emails stuff under user profile "jsuser", so I set up
jsuser as a user in Google Apps. In iNav I was able to tell it to
authenticate as jsuser@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Had to pay for an additional
user in Google Apps, but what I did was to let my
Windows/networking/support consultant use it as well. He can then do
support work while I'm on vacation. (Serendipitously, his initials
are "js".)
