Anonymous SMTP Server / SMTP Relay to Hotmail
Hi All,
I have a piece of hardware that will send SMTP email, but only anonmyous ...
How would I go about setting it up so that I can forward the email to a hotmail account ? I have the authentication details ..
How do I set up an anonmyous relay on a machine to forward it to my hotmail account ?
Cheers.

You can use IIS if you are on a PRO windows box or postfix on a linux.
You have to configure to accept mails from the source IP and allow to relay:
for example in IIS 6:
http://www.microsoft.com/technet/prodtechnol/windowsserver2003/library/iis/58f05ef9-55a3-42b3-9f57-27fdc8723b8a.mspx
and in postfix:
http://www.postfix.org/SMTPD_ACCESS_README.html
Then you could configure it to use your provider's server as smarthost (just to don't fall into some blacklist/troubles with your IP).
for example with IIS 6:
http://www.microsoft.com/technet/prodtechnol/WindowsServer2003/Library/IIS/6003ab51-7eb5-47b2-8d92-e26b1deeeac1.mspx?mfr=true
and postfix:

Hope this helps.
