In IMail, relay permissions are bidirectional. This is one of the tricks of the trade, and is covered throughout the list archives if you need expanded info. > The other question I had about this was how will my mail server know to > store and forward mail from his domain? See my comment above and the KB article (reading it again now might help). This is why you (1) add the IP to your relay list, and (2) pair the IP with a hostname using the Windows HOSTS file. Note that the latter is in a sense a reuse (misuse?) of the HOSTS file for a purpose outside the OS' interpretation; in other worlds, it would be a separate MXHOSTS file. -Sandy Please visit http://www.ipswitch.com/support/mailing-lists.html to be removed from this list.
