Hello,

I have been using Imail Version 5 for over 2 years (small business with our
own servers) and recently started having SPAM problems.  I have noticed that
my server is being exploited using "X-RCPT-TO".   The addresses being used
are alias' that we utilize in our business.  Check out the message header
I've attached.

What is X-RCPT-TO?   Should this be possible on Imail?   How can I secure my
server against this?   I have received one message from Earthlink that my
machine is a possible spamming machine and that my server is on there black
list for relay.  What's the impact of that?   I also noticed that even
Ipswitch uses X-RCPT-TO.  I noticed this when I changed out of digest mode
(see below).

Please email me directly.  I don't believe switching from digest mode took.

Thanks in advance for any assistance.

Matt Hirsch
