This is very important. You need to install POP-before-SMTP. It's a package for the Cobalt. If you need the exact address for it, let me know. Then you remove the relay list in the Control Panel.
Hope this helps,

It seems many poeple manually add entires to the relay list, which isn't something you have to do (not saying you did this, but you may have). If you have manually added entires this could be the problem.
The pop-auth package works well through and I'd also recommend you install that if you haven't already.
