Set it up like that: 1) Disable ASSP and switch your MTAs listen port to 25 2) set up your MTA that it will not relay for anybody except for authenticated users 3) set up your MTA that it will accept all mail to local adresses (without smtp-auth) 4) set up your MTA that it will NOT allow relaying from localhost or servers IP. IF YOU ALLOW RELAYING FROM LOCALHOST, you will have an OPEN RELAY when you start ASSP (as your MTA sees all mail comming in from 127.0.0.1!) 5) run an open relay test like http://www.abuse.net/relay.html - your server should not be an OPEN relay
If everything is fine, move on: 6) Switch the listen port from your mta to whatever you specified in ASSP 7) Start ASSP 8) rerun the open relay test. Everything should be fine now 9) add your local users/adresses to ASSP. This will not prevent relaying, but will protect your server from dictornary attacks and will remove much load. 10) Done.
