Price Sent: Monday, December 22, 2003 8:20 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [IMail Forum] FW: root@ causing us to be on ORDB   Hi peeps,      Recently whilst going through the logs, I got some messages as to our IP being on ORDB. Upon investigation I found that it was, in fact, all my IPs were listed there, o when I looked at the email(test) sample that caused the failure, I saw it was being send spoofed as root @domain.com.   I have my SMTP security set to relay for local users only and always thought this was my best option. I switched to No mail Relay, and started getting users having problems sending mail (one particular domain has over 500 users).   I set it back while I investigate further. I was able to retest all my IPs & get them removed from the list, since I had no mail relay selected for a few hours whilst testing.   Any tips? I’m lost here.   PS I run a collocated server, utilizing Imail 7.15, hosting approx 50 domains ATM   Cary J. Price Genesis Consulting
