When using contact forms, homemade as well as in joomla/mambo the messages are not being send if smtp limiter plugin is set to disable smtp for a user.

How can this be adjusted in order to make the 'smtp disable' function mean that it disables external usage but still allow forms working?

To make it more easily understandable: - a customer should not be able to use authed smtp in Outlook (anonymous smtp usage is disabled as well)
- a PHP script on the server (localhost) should be allowed to use sendmail and or authed SMTP.

Any easy way to realise this or is there a package for sale which has such functionality build in. If possible with some accounting of the message id's a user has send mails under.

But agains stressing out that i don;t want user to use my smtp server using Outlook. But they should be allowed on localhost. All suggestions, with or without links to interresting material is welcome.

When one disables SMTP via SMTP limiter plugin this will be shown in the log if someone tries to use a form:
