RE: do I have an open relay?

Hrm... I tried bouncing mail off your server and couldn't do it.  I did send mail in 
to [EMAIL PROTECTED] and it went through... which is normal.  I *think* you're not 
open for relay from what I can tell.

I got a virus warning from my exchange virus scanner

to:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
from:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
subject: You're Paying Too Much

My Mcafee groupshield exchange stopped the virus, but from the warning, it tells me 
that I have an open relay, which should not be the case. I have tested this every way 
that I can and it seems to not be open..

My domain is tbopayroll.com and nothing else should even get through my firewall, a 
Watchguard FB-II. Can anyone help?

Hey joe... here's what I did...

telnet mail.tbopayroll.com 25

helo spammer.com

mail from: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
rcpt to: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

(at this point it denied me saying invalid mailbox... which leads me to believe you're 
not an open relay)

Use telnet and do abuse's procedure to see if you are open

Hrm... I tried bouncing mail off your server and couldn't do it.  I did send
mail in to [EMAIL PROTECTED] and it went through... which is normal.  I
*think* you're not open for relay from what I can tell.

I got a virus warning from my exchange virus scanner

to:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
from:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
subject: You're Paying Too Much

My Mcafee groupshield exchange stopped the virus, but from the warning, it
tells me that I have an open relay, which should not be the case. I have
tested this every way that I can and it seems to not be open..

My domain is tbopayroll.com and nothing else should even get through my
firewall, a Watchguard FB-II. Can anyone help?



Thanks,
