It turns out I was misled by not reading the full error messages when I
first got the problem.
The blat log said:
>>>putline>>> AUTH PLAIN *****
<<<getline<<< 535 Authentication failed
*** Warning *** The SMTP server did not accept Auth PLAIN value.
*** Warning *** Are your login userid and password correct?
I stopped reading at the first warning and assumed it meant I couldn't
send the password as a plain text value, so it had to be sent using
SSL. This was confused by their Outlook setup having the SSL checkbox
checked too.
I got them to re-enter their password and took stunnel out of the
equation and it al worked.
Thanks for all the help.
