You need a Postfix server. If you want help setting up Postfix on RedHat
7.1 I would be happy to help. These problems would never haunt you again.
IMail is a nice backend e-mail server, but Postfix takes a ton of abuse and
still maintains its extreme performance even on wimpy machines. Once your
Postfix server is installed just input into your SMTP security to deny all
IPs except the Postfix server, and rely only for the Postfix IP. That's it.
Installation of RedHat 7.1 plus Postfix takes about 30 minutes, and there
are only a few commands to maintain it via SSH.
A member supported Anti-Spam Database for Postfix, Sendmail, and IMail.
Postfix RPMs for RedHat 7.1 available in the member's section.
