That's because WebShield is an open relay by default. You need to set it
up to not relay. There should be an option in there somewhere to not be an
open relay.
The other thing to remember with WebShield is that when you are letting it
know your domains, you *must* add each domain twice -- once normally, and
then again with a "." after it (such as "mcafee.com" and
"mcafee.com."). If you don't do this, someone can easily take down your
server by sending mail to the version with a "." after it.
