I will second what Al said. I had to do the same thing. But it was not uniform across the different users. I also had a situation where i had to first do a POP login (connect) in order to send too.

loPOP = CREATEOBJECT("wwPOP3")
loPop.cMailServer = "mailserver.net"
loPop.cUserName = "rickstrahl"
loPop.cPassword = "password"

*** Create a log string
loPop.lLogSession = .T.

IF !loPOP.Connect()

>I'm using the WWIPSTUFF class to do an SMTP email. I'm getting this error:

Should I be changing something in the WWIPSTUFF class just like I would in Outlook to says "outgoing server requires authentication" or is it an Earthlink issue.
