V3 has two options for Authentication ("How Should SQL Server verify the
Authenticty of the login ID?"):
1. With Windows NT Authentication using the network login ID (this is
the old trusted connection in the older ODBC drivers).
2. With SQL Server authentication user a login ID and password enterd by
the user.
You need to make sure you have the SECOND one checked. That will give
you
a place to enter a username/password below, but that username/password
is
ONLY for testing the connection and getting a list of databases for the
next screen. The username/password that EmerAuth will use is configured
in the EmerAuth admin.
As a side note, I prefer the user to NOT be a privledged user. There
was an issue with the liscenses table in Emerald, but if you correct
that, it will work fine.

Emerald 2.5 created four groups: Emerald, EmeraldAdmins, EmeraldSecure
and
EmeraldApps. You might want to look at instperm.sql if you don't have
those.

He means go into Enterprise Manager, drill down into your Emerald
database and fine the EmeraldApps groups. Select permissions and
find the Liscenses table. Click the check in the Select column
for it and select save.
If you want to send me connection information for your SQL Server
and the machine running NTMail, I'd be happy to connect to them and
see if I can find whats wrong.
