SMTP relay box for older clients

I know I've seen this posted here before, but many searches couldn't find it. I seem to remember a post about setting up another computer as a sort of email relay server, where it would send and receive email from an ISP email account, but then do something with the authentication, so that older email clients don't have to deal with the common SMTP auth problems. Can anyone shed some light on this? Is there any way to turn an unused 68k/PPC mac into such a server?
