You switch service provider or give them a whack with the cluebat.


Some providers don't support auth do to the insecure passwords their 
users have. Having your server opened up to relay spam because your user 
had a bad password is not a good prospect.

So the provider allows the user to pick an insecure password, and then
complains that they can't support a security measure because of their poor
policy choices/enforcement?

Hey Mikael, hand me that cluebat......
