The IP address that you enter (with the ALLOWIP option) will allow that IP address to send unlimited E-mail. For example, if you have a webserver at 192.168.112.14 that sends a lot of E-mail, and you don't care how much it sends, you could use "ALLOWIP 192.168.112.14". A spammer will not be able to come from 192.168.112.14 (unless he breaks into the server, in which case you have a serious security problem, or he forges his IP, which is nearly impossible for a spammer to do). On the other hand, if you want [EMAIL PROTECTED] to send unlimited E-mail, that will also allow a spammer to send unlimited E-mail simply by placing "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" as the return address. The key is that the spammer won't forge the IP, but they can easily forge the IP address. -Scott --- [This E-mail was scanned for viruses by Declude Virus (http://www.declude.com)] --- This E-mail came from the Declude.JunkMail mailing list.
