Call it a "server" if you want, but it's also a client. No different
than your PC email client, thunderbird, web interface, etc.

Allow me to be more precise: The possibilities regarding "modern"
authentication options like 2FA and the likes are implemented much more
broadly on Mail User Agents (mail applications) than Mail Transfer Agents
(like IBM i SMTP server).


My MAILTOOL Plus software/agent doesn't use the IBM i SMTP server. That's
the whole point of it. :) That's why it is "easy" to switch from user/pw
authentication to OAuth, even if it requires 2FA.

I haven't used the IBM SMTP server in years.
