Well, I don't have THE answer but I have some ideas. For starters this seems odd. If the machine is called "mail.domain.com" then is "domain.com" in hosteddomains and acceptmailfor? If not I'm not sure how you are getting any mail into this system. If courier doesn't know that "domain.com" is a valid domain to accept mail for, then it ought to give you a "513 Relaying denied" error every time you try and accept mail through SMTP. At least I think it should. Perhaps wiser heads than mine can shed some light on this. > smtpaccess.dat allows local machines (192.168...) to send mail without > authentication.

External addresses don't need to be explicitly denied in the smtpaccess file. By default NO ONE can relay. You use smtpaccess to allow ip addresses to relay or you can use smtp auth to allow people to relay. Conversely you can use smtpaccess to categorically deny some ip addresses. Try removing the lines that block outside addresses and just leave the lines that allow the internal network to relay. Maybe the explicit block is "winning", so that even if you authenticate those addresses are still blocked from relaying. Sam would have to explain the order that these get checked and whether this is true or not, however. > # ls /usr/lib/courier/libexec/courier/modules/esmtp/ -lh > total 1.5M > -r-xr-x--- 1 courier courier 25K Jul 31 02:23 addcr > -r-xr-xr-x 1 courier courier 49K Jul 31 02:23 authend > -r-sr-x--- 1 courier courier 185K Jul 31 02:23 authstart > -r-xr-x--- 1 courier courier 906K Jul 31 02:23 courieresmtp > -r-xr-x--- 1 courier courier 328K Jul 31 02:23 courieresmtpd > > They are there.
