I like your post, I've been trying to send email to lotus account from sharepoint for one week now and it is not working, I can't get it to work. I try to use similar settings than for the gmail account. But still it is not working…

Gmail did allow this at one point. I think they stopped doing this so they would get less spam. I have switched over to using my ISP's smtp server which allows relaying with an alias.

Well I’m back…but I dunno man…Microsoft sucks, nothings simple….relaying worked, but it has my gmail account on it and I can’t use this for different websites because it has to come from each domain? Should I just ditch Microsoft and use a proper SMTP server that isn’t ass backwards??

Do you mean how to send email without using GMail? I too would like to know that. The issue with relaying through Gmail is that all the emails have a from address of your gmail account. I am yet to try it, but I think this is going to cause problems for different websites with different domains. Will soon see. I will endevour to report back when I find out.
