Some comments on this thread:

1. I'd completely forgotten about setting this up, but it appears that we have our programmatically-generated emails from our cloud box going through smtp-relay.gmail.com (which was a big upgrade from just sending them out directly, and hoping they'd find their way to their recipients).

2. I've just been informed that Amazon has something called Amazon Simple Email Service, and we are evidently already in the process of migrating our cloud-based (non-Midrange, but Midrange-friendly) CRM product to use that service to send email. I don't know much of anything about it (least of all, whether it's at all Midrange-friendly), and liteally only heard of it a few minutes ago.

3. Thanks for bringing this subject up, Mr. Crosby. I suspect that I'll probably have to reconfigure T-Bird on my work Mac before the end of September, because I don't *think* I've got it set up for OAuth.

(About the only good thing I have to say about GMail's web-mail interface is that it's slightly less clunky than my ISP's web-mail interface. Then again, the only web-mail interface I've ever *actually liked* was something called Squirrel Mail, which my previous ISP used.)
