Yes he is delivering it. But isn't this a security breach, is there any patch or 
something to control this by default.

He's not relaying, he's delivering inbound right?[1] You could control what servers 
are allowed to communicate on port 25 to your Exchange server, but it's a lot more 
effort than a few minutes in a closed room with the offender... unless you think this 
is the tip of the assberg, in which case it may make sense to go further lock things 
down.

[1] Although authenticated relay is generally enabled by default since one usually 
'trusts' people with authentication rights not to be complete maroons.

So the conclusion is that any LAN user can use my server as gateway, I have send mail 
server as well but to use e2k as a gateway I have to add the IP address for relay 
through my e2k server. Why Mdeamon is bypassing this security?

Guys, don't worry I have to kill him ;)

That's absolutely right - to quote the Great Ed...

"There are seldom good technological solutions to behavioural problems"

A length of 2x4 is hardly technological, and supremely satisfying
wielded in the hands of a frustrated IT admin. Win - Win!
