I hope I'm describing this adequately. If not, let me know. I really need to get this controlled. Seems to me a disgruntled employee can continue using his email address to send messages to the company even after I've deleted them from my server.
Yes, but only if he has access to send the E-mail. And if he does, you haven't fired him well. :)
Well, I can't fire him enough that he doesn't use his home computer's POP client that's previously been configured with his (once valid) user, to send messages to our domain; maliciously or inadvertently.
I'm guessing the problem here is that you are using a "Relay for spammers" option in IMail. IMail's SMTP Security options have a number of relaying choices. Of them, only 2 can be used safely (the rest cause you to be an open relay). The two safe options are "Relay for Addresses" and "No Mail Relay".
I have No Relay.
Maybe my confusion is that I ass-u-med that someone sending messages was authenticated by IMail, even when sending to someone within the domain.
I guess I'm further surprised that this can't be disallowed.
Thanks again. Appreciate it. D.
