Since the DOS goes by connection filtering, my relay server would be considered the sending machine and therefore blacklisted even though it didn't send the message - right??
So, I white list it, and then no matter who send s anything, its all coming in - right??

In this case a relayed message will be delivered and so not count. However Darrels feature request to have a valid recipient file for gatewayed domains would let work the DOS prevention also for this messages. Mike: I believe the IP whitelist table would be a sender IP list. So it wouldn't work to whitelist nummerous messages comming from different sources and relayed to one other IP.
