As far as I can tell the SMTP Email VIs on the SMTP Email pallet do not support any sort of authentification. Unless I am missing something this makes them close to useless. It definately makes them usless to me.
I think there should be a login (and logout) VI where the login session is passed into the other VIs via a reference object.
I agree with the OP that there needs to be some authentication with the SMTP server if it's needed, but the login/logout functionality is already in the SMTP VIs if I am not mistaken. I'd go one farther to say that it would be a nice touch if SSL integration were added.
