well, by default, Exchange server 5.5 and 2000 never did this, nor did
raidenmaild.  
this is the first time i've encountered such an issue.  it's letting someone
with no account
 distrubute mail on the network - thats not right.

The term "Relay" refers to outgoing E-mail sent through a mailserver.
 
In your case, the E-mail is addressed to an account on your mailserver, so 
it is not being relayed. If it was addressed to another mailserver, that 
would be relaying, and could potentially be a security problem.
 
What you are talking about is detecting incoming spam. That's a huge 
subject -- searching the archives will provide a lot of information.
