Re: How to NOT RELAY messages?
Thanks to everyone, the Help received was really inspiring so I believe the relay problem is solved now. I had to addat 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.

Can anyone help? 1. Make sure that /var/qmail/control/rcpthosts exists. 2. Read the explanation of the test you are attempting. 3. Read the qmail mailing list archives -- this has been discussed literally dozens of times.
