Re: How to NOT RELAY messages?

[Administratori Infonet]

Thanks to everyone, the Help received was really inspiring so I believe the relay problem is solved now. I had to add at the end of /etc/hosts.allow a line tcp-env: ALL : ALLOW after the line where I was indicating the setenv = RELAYCLIENT for specific hosts. in order to make it run as I wanted. This thing wasn't written in the FAQ. The ORBS test seems to find our mail-server OK by now, since they have got us out of their OpenRelay database.   Best regards, AdiM, Infonet Buzău http://www.infonet.ro - ISP din Buzău http://news.infonet.ro - revistă gratuită de PC si Internet ----- Original Message ----- From: Chris Johnson To: Administratori Infonet Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, October 24, 2000 4:51 PM Subject: Re: How to NOT RELAY messages?

"From" addresses in yur domain is a whole different issue than "to" addresses. Chances are that you don't want to relay just because someone says his e-mail address is in your domain. > I have used the tcp-env setting in hosts.allow > following the instructions in the qmail-FAQ > but when I try the test at > telnet mail-abuse.org > it says that it can still relay through my server. Are you *sure* that's what it says? Chris
