It stops on test 7 because qmail will accept that mail. What the test dont know is that Qmail will never deliver that email. I think this has been discussed a couple of times before and someone else probably knows the exact details on this better than I do. Cheers Lars

If you followed lifewithqmail to the letter; Yes. If you still have doubts have mail-abuse.org or ordb.org test your server. I'm sure they'll find your server secure. Cheers Lars

As far as I know, you cannot make qmail get all the way to test 17. However, it really does not matter, because also as far as I know, a properly configured qmail system will pass all the tests in reality. As Lars pointed out, qmail /appears/ to accept the mail, but in fact it would never be delivered. This I know for a fact, and it is the same with several tests after that, which I have done manually. Lastly...Is your server secure? I don't know. If you did a proper install of qmail, that component should be fine. I recommend you try the tests manually and see what you find. Good luck.
