Is there a link to this "Blackholed" list. I would like to make sure that we don't get "Blackholed". I inquire because after reading information from there site, I found out that if one of our customers sets up a mail server inside one of our Trusted IP blocks and sends the mail from his server to ours, we wil forward it on because of our Relay Rules. Even if we used the SMTP Auth, he will still be able to send through our mail server. This in turn will result in our Mail Server being "Blackholed". Thanks for any advice.

Most people who run open relays say that. Until the spammers start sending mail through their servers. The spammers WILL find you. There is a reason that people use lists such as ORBZ. Note that you ARE an open relay, and you ARE offering free mail service to spammers. If you want help closing it, see the previous E-mails. >I found no way with imail to close relaying issues reported by orbz >for our mail server. There are 2 ways: "Relay for Addresses" or "No mail relay". See the previous posts for more information. >I tryed to contact orbz but, it is almost impossible to discuss with them >seriously, they just think they are God. When we got listed in ORBZ (we run an open relay intentionally), we got out quickly, using their automated system. Of course, if you are an open relay, they ain't gonna let ya out. -Scott --- Declude: Anti-virus, Anti-spam and Anti-hijacking solutions for IMail. http://www.declude.com --- [This E-mail was scanned for viruses by Declude Virus (http://www.declude.com)] Please visit http://www.ipswitch.com/support/mailing-lists.html to be removed from this list.
