I am using the test for open relay at <http://www.abuse.net/cgi-bin/relaytest>http://www.abuse.net/cgi-bin/relaytest on a machine running imail with declude and it is reporting the machine as openrelay. However the same test will report as no relay on a machine running imail without declude. Has any one run into this situation? Is it because declude that the machine is reporting as open relay?
What specifically is it reporting? For example, basic open relay tests just check to see if they can send from a random E-mail address to a random E-mail address. However, others will be more sophisticated, trying to send from an address on your domain, using the "% hack", etc. Having Declude will not make you an open relay, unless IMail is set up as an open relay (you can prove this by disabling Declude -- you'll see that it still reports you as an open relay).
Note that you are actually better protected with the "% hack" -- IMail in some cases will accept such E-mail, but with Declude JunkMail, it will get blocked.
