That is ok, if your clients only access your pop / smtp server from a
certain fixed ip or ip block. For those who don't have this (people with
roaming users) check out the SMTP-AUTH and POPAUTH features of the latest
versions of sendmail / qmail etc. Your 8.9.3 supports this ok - or upgrade
to 8.10 for even better support.

LIH is all for free speech. But it was created for a purpose - to help
