When you disable relaying, your mail server (SMTP) will accept messages
only for some domains (yours). Mails can come from everywhere, but the

When you use a mail server (SMTP) to relay, you send a message to a

How is it possible that a mail-to adress in the form of
[EMAIL PROTECTED] is treated and dropped in the global

Does this proof relaying IS possible?

I made it sound like this is just a testing issue in my earlier
message but I see 2 or 3 attempts per week by real spammers to
