Are you getting the rejection when you try to submit for outbound queue?
Or is it later in the process? You might be actually getting a connection
with the remote mail server and IT is what is doing the rejection.
(BTW, lots of places do that, despite the effectiveness being up for debate,
the trojan that used that technique isn't very prevailent anymore. Also
note, that type of "security" is weak at best, and only slows down all but
the dumbest and Google-Clueless users who may want to crack into the file.
I suggest not relying on that for anything but the lowest level of
confidential information.)
