I don't think there's anything in the SMTP protocol that allows for password authentication, secure or otherwise. I notice that M$ Outlook Express has a box you can check off to set up authentication with the SMTP server, but I suspect that's some protocol Microsoft invented that works only with Exchange Server, or some other MS product. If you want to restrict relaying, you'll have to do it using one of the conventional methods (typically by restricting which IP address can use you as a relay).
