The only thing you should need to do is enable both types of smtp authentication in 
the SMTP server settings and, as I mentioned, FusionMail should deny relay except for 
authenicated users.

The POST server will send any mail that is present in its queue.  So, if a mail gets 
to the POST queue it will be sent.

What you want to do is prevent unauthorized mail from getting there in the first place 
and that is where SMTP auth comes into play.

It's a product based on SpamAssassin but is customized for use with iMS and is also 
configured as a standalone server.  Any rule sets that work with SpamAssassin will 
work with iSE.
