Hello and thank you for your post.
How are these other workstations sending email (Outlook RPC, SMTP, POP3, IMAP4)? It
sounds as if they are some type of SMTP client, but just checking. If they are an SMTP client,
configure them to authenticate to the SMTP server, but remember that you are sending user
names and password clear text (to resolve this apply a TLS cert to transport protocols).

As for configuring Outlook, if you don't use IPSEC you have to open several ports through your
firewall:

My internal clients send mail fine, however I have workstations placed in lower secure DMZ's that need to send mail through my server. They can do this fine only if I select both Anonymous and IW authentication. My question is how can I allow my clients to authenticate to my server without having Anonymous authentication selected. I read were I could open all the standarded ports used and assign static port on the GC, would that be my only solution??..
