Outlook Express does support SMTP AUTH, assuming you have the version from '98 or later, SPA turned off, and configured your mail server properly.
I know, as I have clients using Sendmail to relay; the main problem is that SMTP AUTH setup is not easy, as you have to compile SASL, sometimes OpenSSL, recompile sendmail with support for the previous, add configuration for the support, and configure SASL support and optionally generate SSL certificates.
Sorry, slashdot does not appear to allow the <rhetorical> tag.
They could have easily used SMTP AUTH, and kept the passwords secure by using GSSAPI with their bastardized kerberos variant. That way, they could at least claim to be offering a "standards-compliant mail solution," and avoid the "this is the way you will go today" overtones this reeks of.
Sure, PowerPoint 98 (that's the Mac OS version) defaults to printing everything in "Black and White" until you find the stupid default hidden under the PowerPoint menu in the print dialog box. Don't know how many times an irate user has wandered in trying to get their color document to print color to the color printer. And due to the damnable binary preferences file format, you have to muck with the GUI on each client to fix the stupid default.
Besides that, for fun, generate a.ppt on version X of powerpoint, then take it over to version Y, and see how different the "WYSIWYG" document looks between the two. We get a lot of similar printing/display problems in our heterogeneous environment.
Unlike the Office document format, there are actually patches for sendmail and BIND that fix the known problems. Anti-virus software exists as a retroactive kluge on top of the negligent design of Microsoft products, as products like the "virus creator toolkit" I've seen on the web demonstrate.
I've heard much about Dan's products, and their security record is impressive, but the license, "different" directory layout, and need to patch the software to include required functionality for my environment put me off the last time I went poking around.
You forgot the gaping hole otherwise known as the Office document format, and the massive "treating symptoms" anti-virus market, which, last I checked, was primarily aimed at Microsoft's products.
It is time for the site to move on, I intend to open it up for many contributors. I intend to get a few excellent orienteers and expeditionists to join me in making this site even better, and I intend to release it under the GNU Free Documentation License (but with some modifications to allow people to print and distribute printouts more easily).
Have you considered using the Open Content License instead of hacking up Yet Another License (YAL)? Might be more along the lines of what you need...
Particularily the section where a member of the Hamas went looking to blow some people up, found someone not really caught up in the cause (his cousin), and the deed was done inside three days.
I'm sure we'll be seeing biometrics to keep the known (natural selection will get a few stupid ones) baddies off the planes, but I fail to see how it would stop the terrorists from recruiting new talent as required...
Open, exploitable ports are nothing compared to the design flaws inherent in the Office document format and the Outlook family, that cause wave after wave of new virus to saunter past anti-virus software, laughing.
The moderates would probably love that, especially in countries like Pakistan, where all U.S. aid was being cut off around the time I left (1994).
However, that leaves the fundamentalists out in the cold. These are the folks who want the U.S. (secular globalists?) out, and proper Islamic states setup.
Read Terror in the Mind of God by Mark Juergensmeyer. Especially chapter 6, which covers the Aum Shinrikyo machinations in the Tokyo subway involving nerve gas. They're an offshoot of Japanese Buddhism.
There's a bit in the text on some Hindi militants, too. (Though I've seen some folks argue that Hinduism isn't pantheistic, but rather multifarious ways of approaching the same thingy...)
Perhaps the monotheistic violence takes center stage due to the prevalence of monotheism in the world?
Sure, you can march in, maim and kill some folks, prop up a "U.S. approved leader" of some kind and smile for the media back in the States as peace is restored.
Won't solve a damn thing. The Muslim (Hindi/Jewish/Catholic/Buddhist-- take a pick, they're everywhere) radicals will still be alive and well (sure, a few will die, but hey! life goes on), and certainly won't stand for a ruler propped up by the "Great Satan." That's the U.S.A., from their memeplex, to give some perspective.

Check out my sendmail site, or this other one (Sendmail w/ PostgreSQL support) for various SMTP AUTH/Sendmail related resources, they might help you get SMTP AUTH working right.

You may not need a port forwarder, your mail server may be able to listen on another port via a configuration option.
Example is for Sendmail, though you probably want a different Addr specification.
You meant SPA (Secure Password Authentication), right?
Why SPA, when there is SMTP AUTH [RFC 2554]?
More people are going to be using Outlook.
This is a good thing how?

At least sendmail and BIND have patches.

Rumors have it the OmniGroup is working on a 4.1 version to go along with 10.1 which should be faster.
And as MaxVlast says, 10.1 is spiffy.
You said it. And since this is a unix system here, you can serve justice to Microsoft, in a small way:
rm -rf /Applications/Internet\ Explorer*
Try it on the next OS X machine you admin. Very therapeutic, IMHO.
True, IETF is very friendly towards business. To the point of letting patented stuff get into IETF standards.

Windows has anti-virus software, for windows.

FreeBSD has anti-virus software, for windows.

Regulating above does nothing to solve the root of the problem.

A very tricky tinderbox to tend to.
