I understand your point. I will ponder on it to see if I come up with anything. (Unless someone else does first. :) )

These are valid points too. However, there are still two issues I'm a bit worried about. One, we have a network monitoring server that sends pages to us through our mailserver. When things are falling apart around here I'm pretty sure that thing sends out (or at least tries to) enough messages to get caught by Hijack. For various reasons, that box has multiple IPs bound to it, so I'm not sure whether I'd have to create an ALLOWIP line for all of its IPs, or just for one of them. Secondly, our techsupport staff occasionally gets a request from a customer to check on some sort of problem with a particular mailbox. They will then re-direct all messages that were in a mailbox to a different one, or forward them all to a remote mailserver. Often there are enough messages to set off Hijack. There are about 25-30 tech machines. So call me lazy, but I figured that using ALLOWIP for the entire class C would be the best solution. --- [This E-mail was scanned for viruses by Declude Virus (http://www.declude.com)] --- This E-mail came from the Declude.JunkMail mailing list.
