RE: ORBS doesn't like me :(

[Andy Meuse]

I created a rcpthosts file populated with my domain. Now the error I'm
recieving after sending remote mail is ..

"No transport provider was available for delivery to this recipient."

Local mail is unaffected.

thx for all the replies,

Here is a recap of my situation. ORBS says I'm an open relay. I had no
rcpthosts file so there you go. When I create a rcpthosts file local users
can't send remote mail.

        I thought I read that the :allow is redundant since the default is to allow
any connection?
