URGENT help. Hello, we are runing imail 6.04 and everything have worked fine.... last friday we had an successed hackattempt on our mailserver, we did stop him after 20 minutes and thought all was fine. But now we found out that we are an open relay. We have not changed the settings and we have relay for local users only and not checked disable SMTP AUTH reporting. isn't this correct? Also the "windowsettings" on the right side of admin (Not the treeview) is totally messed up... We tried to reinstall the latest patch (6,04) but that didn't solve. Also when trying to connect with telnet we get error first try on ehlo and success the second; 220 X1 NT-ESMTP Server stib.com (IMail 6.04 6-2) ehlo denada.se 502 unimplemented command ehlo denada.se 250-stib.com says hello I think that indikates that something has been corrupted in Imail and something is listening for some command att login...
