You're correct. This is XO's solution for preventing spam relaying. The
problem comes in where I want to send mail without having first checked
inbound mail. Yes, I could set up a cron job to fetch mail periodically,
but that solution seems like using a sledge to pound in a picture
hanger. I'd prefer a solution that's more... subtle? Also, on occasion I
have to pick up mail at work from the same mailbox. If I implement a
cron job, that mail may be gone when I go to pick it up at work. (Yes, I
know there are solutions for that, too. But I don't want to get that
far into it, just to fix this little problem.)
