Hello ASSP experts! I have a situation that appears to my novice eyes to be not correct. I receive numerous emails that come from an external ip but has a sender name that uses a local domain. For example: the sender ip might be 123.123.123.123, the send email address would be j...@example.com a

Thanks for all answers, you gave me good ideas :) The biggest problem is mentioned by Andrew: too many people out there thinking free=not good. I cannot just set it up and give it a try, because it's not our system, it's one of our clients', and we bill every hour. I need to get approval for the
