Huh, I didn't actually know it was possible to specify more than one server there (I thought it had to be done with an MX record or not at all, and thus you get one choice of port). That should be a workable solution, as long as I don't end up visiting too many networks of evil. Everyone's solutions have been pretty interesting[1]. I'm surprised (although, yes, I knew) that there aren't less sysadmin-y solutions: blocking outgoing SMTP is getting pretty common. I feel bad users who just want to send their mail already and not carry around a SMTP setup cheatsheet for Outlook/Evo/something. -Mary [1] Don Marti also has a fun setup with an automatically created SSH tunnel firing up from inittab[2], I could also try that as my last relay host. http://www.linuxworld.com/community/?q=node/134 [2] Hrm, I guess this means learning upstart. -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User's Group Mailing List - http://slug.org.au/ Subscription info and FAQs: http://slug.org.au/faq/mailinglists.html
