Outgoing email question

[luma]

Hello,
I am new to Zimbra and I am very interested in using this software.
I have dedciated servers in hosting that I use but my testing server is at home,
I have a business class cable connection and I am allowed to run servers. the only problem is my isp blocks outgoing port 25.

Is there a way to setup Zimbra as a mail server/client but all outgoing email would go threw my isp's outgoing mail server instead of having my own outgoing mail server?

I am a bit new to email servers but I am not new to linux/unix.

Thank you very much for any tips/hints/solutions

Yes, you set Zimbra to use your ISPs mail server as a smart host for relaying mail.

Ok Thanks,

I guess now I should get a fresh verion of ES 4.0 installed or FC4 and follow the docs

another quick questions.
If I tell Zimbra to relay threw my isp's email server can I tell Zimba to use Authentication so that my isp allows this relaying?

Thanks and Kudos for the FAST reply!

Yes.

Search on "smtp authenticaton" in the forum search field

SMTP authentication did not return any results but I did other searches and found what I was looking for.

all I need to do now is install a supported os and start testing.

Thanks
