I went to dsbl.org and put in my IP address to be removed, but it said that I am not listed. Tried it 2-3 times to be sure I was putting the number in correctly.
I thought someone had said I was listed at dsbl.org. Was that right or was it just that I might get listed?

That does it. :) I would suggest going to http://www.dsbl.org and letting them know that you are no longer an open relay. >Should I disable the VRFY command and AUTH reporting? I would recommend disabling the VRFY, but not the AUTH. Disabling the VRFY will make it slightly more difficult for spammers to harvest addresses off your mailserver. If you disable SMTP AUTH reporting, though, you may not be able to relay mail if you use SMTP AUTH (which isn't an issue if you are sending mail from the one IP you entered in "Relay for Addresses", but it would be an issue if you tried relaying mail from another location). -Scott --- Declude JunkMail: The advanced anti-spam solution for IMail mailservers.
