That's very helpful!  Thank you!

One clarification: Can these users relay through that host, using SMTP 
AUTH, from anywhere, or only from within your network?  I observe, for 
instance, that the instructions for Outlook 2000 (Windows) does not have 
them check "my [outgoing SMTP] server requires authentication".

If the former, great!  I'll inform my affected customers.  If the latter, 
they'll have to fool with settings as they move around -- which you no 
doubt already know is asking too much of 99% of the population. :-)
