Don't do it... Is soooo bad.... I would only use it if it was a box on my LAN that the internet could not get to. Even then I'd be cautious about it. If you do it then anyone can send mail through you by simply setting their >From address to be on your domain. In short... It is an evil option that should almost never be used. -Josh To Unsubscribe: http://www.ipswitch.com/support/mailing-lists.html List Archive: http://www.mail-archive.com/imail_forum%40list.ipswitch.com/ Knowledge Base/FAQ: http://www.ipswitch.com/support/IMail/
