Hello Kerry, Does sendmail 8.8 support support auth. ? If so just enable it. Basicly all your users will then be forced to auth. before they can send. Works for me.... :)

We're running an older version of Sendmail, 8.8.7-20, but I'm not in charge of the upgrade so I can't do that right now. ORDB.org says we're an open relay and I can't figure out how to tighten it up. I've tried a couple of things on the sendmail website for 8.8, the latest thing I tried was called "check_rcpt". It uses a line which includes {client_addr} and is supposed to get the info from a file called /etc/mail/localIP. I set up that file, but is there someplace I have to define client_addr? It looks like it's still open to everywhere instead of just the addresses I put in that file. I tried another "hack" which was supposed to only allow relaying from the local network, but it didn't let me send even from my own network! I need something half-way in between... I think it was a newer version of the check_rcpt hack I've got in there now. That's the one that didn't let me send mail at all. Are there any sendmail people out there who could help me get started? I'd settle for a link with more info than the anti-spam links on sendmail.com.
