ISSUE #1 - Can't help you.  It woorks fine for us.
 
ISSUE #2 - You must configure imail to relay mail for xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx, where xxx is your clients mailserver IP.  You must also add the approprite host file entries (i.e. theirmail.com, mail.thiermail.com, etc...).  The domain should also not be listed or setup in Imail at all.
 
ISSUE #3 - What are you using to send the mail?  are you using a commandline tool?, PERL and sockets, ASP?  Put a snippet of code up.

Subject: [IMail Forum] ETRN - SMTP Auth - Cut Headers

Hello,
 
Issue #1 - SMTP Authentication is broken. When I bought the software I was told that I could secure by IP Address - if they weren't in my IP Range (subnet) it would validate authentication via their email name and password. (Their FROM Address)
Well - I bought the software - moved all of my customers over to the mail server and found out that no - it doesn't really work. Especially - when using Eudora... :)  (O.K. yes I'm an idiot I didn't test it well enough)
 
Issue #2 - We have a customer that is trying to use ETRN - we are setup as the backup mx record.
When mail to that domain goes to our server it bounces - saying "no local user"
Then when he tries to check - obviously there is no mail.
Our relay settings are setup as "Relay to Local Users" right now because IP/Local Users is broken.
 
Issue #3 - Email Headers Chopped:
We have custom written CGI scripts that send email - until we moved over to this mail server our email worked fine. As soon as we made the switch from the old mail server to the new mail server - our email messages SENT from our CGI scripts were getting chopped up - and the missing part of the email was ending up in the header of the message.
 
Example:
Received: from mail.qcommerce.com [216.32.23.44] by imail.qcommerce.com

This is what it should look like and does using my old mail server:

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
