Hi Walt,
thanks for your response.
"No mail relay" ok that confirms what I already thought. But now I still am
having the problem that people can use my mail server with out having an
account on there, and I cannot ask them not to use, that is the whole point
because anyone can use the server how do I know who is using it? I used the
name Marc just as an fictions person.
Regards,
Taco
