It is extremely easy for an intruder to pretend being one of the local users
on a local host.
SMTP authentication is the only solution. Too bad it is not reliable in
iMail.

I am assuming that this setting is in either Outlook or OE mail acount
properties. If so, do not check that and in your SMTP security for Imail
simply have relay for local hosts or users only. This should solve the
issue.

Subject: [IMail Forum] Relay Problems
Hi All,
We're getting ready to close our open relay and have run into some
problems. If I set "My server requires authentication" to on, and set the
settings to "Use same setting as my incoming mail server" I can't send mail,
it always refuses either the login name or password. I'm running:
Win2K Advanced with SP2
Imail 6.06
The main database is the Imail DB, one host uses SQL. I thought it was
because of the SQL, but it's also happening to hosts that use the Imail DB.
What am I missing, any ideas?
Thanks,
Mike Achenbach
