Hello, in order to stop mail relying through our mail
server, we need to enable SMTP authentication on server
side and on clients. I could not find such option in
Outlook 97 (it is available in Outlook XP and possible
other versions). Could someone please let me know if
there is any patch/hotfix etc. available? I downloaded
and installed Q197869,
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-
us;197869&Product=out97 but it did not help.

Thanks in advance,
Stefan M
 
It is not available in Outlook 97 because the Internet standards to do SMTP
authentication were not developed until after it shipped. You'll need to
upgrade Outlook to get this functionality.
