RE: [IMail Forum] Imail wont send message to anyone not listed in IMAIL

[Dan Horne]

I think having your web form authenticate to send is better.  Your web form could be compromised and used to send out spam emails.  This can happen either way, but if you have several web forms and they authenticate to send, you can easily tell which form is compromised by using your logs.  Otherwise you would only be able to tell which server it came from which may not be as useful.  That would tell you the server that is compromised, but not HOW it is compromised.  It could be a virus, a zombie-infection, a rogue web form or many other things.  If, however, you can trace it to a specific login that is unique to the form, you know exactly where to start looking.

It's much easier. Apply the change and then stop/start the SMTP service. You can do that right from the SMTP page.   -Dave ----- Original Message ----- From: Kathy Lees To: Imail_Forum@list.ipswitch.com Sent: Friday, January 27, 2006 3:16 PM Subject: RE: [IMail Forum] Imail wont send message to anyone not listed in IMAIL Thanks.

Naturally, since you have relay set to No Relay, unless your form is authenticating to Imail, it will not relay for it.   You will need to change your relay settings to relay for IP addresses, and then add the IP of the server that the forms are coming from.   John T eServices For You   -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Kathy Lees Sent: Friday, January 27, 2006 8:35 AM To: imail_forum@list.ipswitch.com Subject: [IMail Forum] Imail wont send message to anyone not listed in IMAIL   We have IMAIL version 8.15 on our system and have it set to No Mail Relay   The problem is this:   On any form we have on our websites, the form will not send to anyone not listed in IMAIL.
