Roger, I posted this earlier in the thread...maybe you missed it:
Paul Robichaux's "Managing MS Exchange Server", Chapter 8, pg 294, bottom of the page: @foe.com - reject mail from foe.com or any subdomain [EMAIL PROTECTED] - reject mail from foe.com, but not a.foe.com So Nate's response was spot on.

That's pretty standard practice in other MTA's I've used over the years, which is why it seems a little out of whack. -------------------------------------------------------------- Roger D.
