Hi all, 

I have a big big question. How can user create alias for themselves? For example, user 
John Smith has username jsmith. He can create more than 1 email accounts like 
[EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED], etc. I have no idea how this 
works but my supervisor has been telling me that customers can create their own alias 
and this led to the open relay hole problem. *people create alias on the IMail server 
and sent SPAM, which makes it look like the SPAM is from you* 
I look in the Alias folder but all I see was root, postmaster, listserve. Where should 
I look??? 
I also have another question. I made a mistake and deleted "root" by accident. Can 
someone tell me the correct settings for it? Right now I just set it as Standard 
Aliases. 
One last question. In attempting to close the open relay hole problem, if I chose 
relay for Addresses only, user need to enable SMTP authentication. However, in 
Netscape/IE browser, it doesn't seem to have such option. My supervisor is not very 
happy about all this. She wants everybody to be able to send mail using any kind of 
mail program. She asked if there is anyway to disable the Alias feature for users. 
(since she thinks users have the ability to create alias themselves and that's the 
reason why we got hijacked) 
But from my understanding, user can not create Alias themselves. 
It will be very helpful if anyone can help me. 
Thank you!!
