For anyone reading this in the archives, the answer has nothing to
do with server configuration (in our case, anyway).  It had to do
with a setting in Mozilla Mail.  Right click on an email account
and go to properties.  Then, after the mail and news account(s)
listed on the left is an entry for Outgoing Server (SMTP).  Click
on that and untick the box for "Use name and password" and our 
problem goes away.

Apparently having that ticked didn't cause any problems previously
but now it does.
