Sorry... maybe I was misunderstood.....
My relay is closed and only relay to local ip address. Our users (around the
world) uses SMTP AUTH to send emails.
in fact, I tried with other services like ORDL and they told me that my
relay is closed.
But orbl.org test says that my relay is open (or I'm not understanding the
code below???)
please help me with this. I do not want my relay to be open. :-)
