Will keep that in mind for my Email Provider -- they might need it.

In the meantime, I guess I was not completely clear.  I have sendmail on
my local network, needs to connect to an external Email Provider, and I
can't use port 25 outbound.  So, how do I configure Sendmail on my local
network to forward to port 587 on its relay?  (Note: I already have the
rest of the relay settings configured, it WAS working to Verizon started
blocking the outbound connection)
