That master.cf with all the sasl makes me think he's wanting to spread spam load out over 5 broadband smtp submission servers over 5 dsl lines or similar. His resistance to using DNS, which is the proper (and easy) solution for a legit operation, and the fact that he's spreading the load of only one server across 5 also smells of a spammer. Are we assisting a spammer or a legit operation? Dhiraj? What's the skinny? -- Stan
