Doug, <br>
I don't use verizon's outgoing mail server. <br>
I jump over it and use one of my own web servers on the Internet for
outgoing mail. <br>
This message was sent via FIOS connection without verizon
authentication.<br>
Look at all the headers you will see that it bypassed verizon outgoing
mail server.<br>
<br>
PS It is interesting that they authenticate when using their outgoing
server, but fail to block port 25 outbound connections. As a result
they don't block virus generated SPAM on verizon customer systems.<br>

<div><font face="Arial" size="2">Yes, I have Verizon DSL in one
house, but there is no PPPoE authentication SW on any PC of the
network. Actually, the house has a DLink 614+ router with PPPoE
dynamic enabled, along with ID and password entered. I believe the ID
and password in the router are to allow the DSL modem to connect to the
DSL account.</font></div>
<div> </div>
<div><font face="Arial" size="2">I think the issue is that regardless
of the email software you use (Outlook Express, Outlook, etc), for
Verizon DSL, one has to configure the email software to authenticate
the smtp server with your ID and password for any outgoing mail. I
haven't been able to do any other way (i.e. use the ID and password in
the router). One can use a different smtp and POP3 server from a
different ISP (like Direcway), but again, the outgoing email is
rejected by Verizon unless authentication is checked and account ID and
password entered. So, therefore, any emails from Web-LinkII always
fail since it is not associataed with any outgoing authentication. At
another house with Direcway, the emails from Web-LinkII work fine.</font></div>
<div> </div>
<div><font face="Arial" size="2">So, Denis, have you been successful
with outgoing emails with Web-LinkII with the new FIOS service?</font></div>
<div> </div>
<div><font face="Arial" size="2">Also, has anyone seen failures of
rules entered in Web-LinkII such that the rule occurs in the OmniII or
Omni, but Web-LinkII sometimes misses it, and thus, the rule isn't
evoked? This occurs in an application where the server computer is
connected to the Omni via an RS-232 port.</font></div>

<div>Doug, <br>
I am assuming you have DSL. and they loaded the PPPoE authentication SW
on the PC and the use an Ethernet cable between the PC and the DSL
modem.<br>
I have the new FIOS service, and instead of loading any software on any
of the PCs, they provided a DLINK 604 router with the PPPoE enabled and
we put the account and password in the router. <br>
<br>
What you may be able to do is use a cheap router that supports PPPoE,
and MAC address cloning (Most linksys routers support) and give the
router your account info. If it does not connect, use the Ethernet
address clone feature and give the router you MAC address from your PC
to use on the WAN side of the connection. <br>
<br>
On my router the PPPoE selected is for DSL links, and the style of
PPPoE is dynamic.<br>
<br>

<div><font face="Arial" size="2">Has anyone found out how to get
around an ISP that requires outgoing authentication for Web-Link II to
send emails upon a given program line? Or alternatively, do we know
when HAI will reconfigure Web-Link II to accept password and ID
authentication for outgoing mail for specific ISPs? Verizon and others
will not allow outgoing mail without authentication for obvious
spam-related reasons. On the other hand, many ISPs will allow this.</font></div>
