Fairlight LightMail.  :)  As long as you have an SMTP server through which
you can route the mail, it's fine.  It's arguably my most popular package.

The one caveat is that it does not support SMTP Authentication
(user/account-based authentication).  That would require extra code.
Nobody has actually needed it, and I don't use it, so it's never been
added.  The general idiom has been IP-based relaying, which is a non-issue
because LightMail never needs to be involved in that.

I -could- add SMTP Auth, but it would be a custom job on top of the cost of
the product.  There's not been enough demand (read:  zero) for me to take
the time to add it as a general version upgrade, given my normal workload.
