The number of domains that your mail server accepts/delivers mail to has no bearing on who you allow to relay mail through your mail server. If you have that many users using your mail server, then you want to employ authenticated SMTP (SMTP-AUTH) or POP-Before-SMTP...this way, only users with actual accounts on your system can relay mail through said system, and you don't have to maintain a large file of IP addresses or IP networks. _______________________________________________ Seawolf-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/seawolf-list
