Can't find Password property in nmsmtp object in Delphi 5



Hi,

I am just finishing off an app that sends emails. I thought that for
the sake of completeness I would allow users to enter a user id and
password for the smtp server they are using, just in case they are
required.

The pages I've found on the web have shown the use of userid (a
property I can find for nmsmtp) and password. The password property
doesn't seem to exist on the version of nmsmtp I'm using. I assume
there's another one for Delphi 5.

Another question. In all the emails I've sent from programs, I've
never worked with an smtp server that required a userid and password.
How common is this and will an email be rejected if the proper userid
and password aren't supplied?

Any advice would be appreciated.

Thanks,
