Dan I talked to someone about this before and the reason this doesn't work
is because you can not choose more than one security. The two securities
together that would allow this are using the one they already have and
allowing from certain ips. If you combined the two they wouldn't have this
problem. I can not even use Imail for CF because of this. We use it for
reservations and in the from field is where the user's email who made the
reservation. With the relay set up they are not allowed to send it even
though it is coming from a machine that I know is allowed to send it. And if
I chose to set the ips it would make most of our clients not be able to use
the mail because they getting dynamic ips from dialin from all over the
place. I wish ipswitch would just code it so Imail can use a hybrid of
choices. This one solution would fix a lot of problems.
