I have relay setup on my server as to the ipaddress of our customers. Take for instance, if they are on 10.10.10.0 ip range choose the option to add a "Group of computers" and input the ipaddress range of your custmers (10.10.10.0).
Hope this helps, J.R. Dobyns Get declude Hijack and then block the following IP addresses and you will get a relive 141.242.7.4 200.203.159.2 203.249.126.11 206.228.51.3 207.179.205.138 213.56.134.17 216.11.79.8 216.20.113.110 216.29.108.114 216.36.93.130 216.5.73.30 216.56.6.99 216.56.8.194 216.76.223 218.0.117.138 61.174.170.114 61.174.170.67 61.174.170.75 61.174.170.78 61.174.171.103 61.174.171.54 62.132.107.20 63.107.246.138 63.238.139.7 63.238.253.66 64.1.192.52 64.162.203.194 64.19.54.170 64.8.191.2 I�m sure somebody in this Forum can tell you how to block some of this IPS collectively so you don�t have to enter each IP address I just don�t know how.

I've read everything I can find in the IMail manual ( running v6.0.2.362 ) regarding closing the open relay, but to no avail. To stem the flow of spam through our server we purchased and installed Declude Hijack. That fixed the problem of sending all the spam, but we are still an open relay as far as the spammer scanners and some of the black hole lists go. I have been using the "Control Access" option for the "Relay Mail for Anyone" Relay Option, and that works too, but the spammers are much faster than I am at changing the IP they send from and I can't keep up. Every time I choose any other option other than the "Relay Mail for Anyone" Relay Option, either we can't send email out, or legitimate mail to us is refused and bounced back to the sender. I know it can't be this hard to close an open relay, but I just can't seem to figure out how to do it and still receive legitimate email. Isn't there a way that I can just tell the server that if the mail isn't from or to one of my valid IMail users, bounce it? Any help you could offer to a newbie would be greatly appreciated.
