I'm not Sam, but I tested Spamdyke 4.2.0 and it smells like the "open relay" you're seeing might be a misconfiguration of your Spamdyke.
I tested here, adding "t...@whitelisted.com" as a recipient-whitelist-entry in my config. Here's the example SMTP session: > 220 panoptic.com ESMTP > HELO > 250 panoptic.com > MAIL FROM:<nob...@nowhere.com> > 250 ok > RCPT TO:<nob...@google.com> > 554 Refused. Sending to remote addresses (relaying) is not allowed. > RCPT TO:<t...@whitelisted.com> > 250 ok > RCPT TO:<nob...@google.com> > 554 Refused. Sending to remote addresses (relaying) is not allowed. > RCPT TO:<relay...@blekko.com> > 554 Refused. Sending to remote addresses (relaying) is not allowed. > QUIT > 221 panoptic.com It's clear that Spamdyke is refusing to accept mail for non-local addresses EXCEPT for the whitelisted t...@whitelisted.com address. IMHO, this is the expected, correct, behavior. Can you provide a complete copy of your Spamdyke configuration and command line arguments you're passing to Spamdyke?
