I got a few 'bounced' messages this morning quoting emails that I never
sent out. Now, I'm tailing my smtp log and it appears somebody is using
several machines to connect to my server and send out messages:
Which would mean you have an open relay, not really a hacked machine. I
would change
Could you please provide me with a bit more detail as to how to do this? How
do I change the management port?

defined in xmail are forwarded to an internal mail system.
Also does email going to a custom domain still go through the filters?
