SP> That means that IMail is not accepting mail addressed to @server.gov.ar. You need
to make sure that you have a host alias of server.gov.ar for mail.server.gov.ar.

they don't mind pretending to be a user of yours. And they do not mind.
SP> For anti-relaying, you want to use "Relay for Addresses" (and enter all the "safe"
IP addresses). Anyone not coming from one of the safe IP addresses can use SMTP AUTH.
