Received many e-mail messages today from ordb.org to determine if our server is an open relay. According to them, it is. In SMTP Security, I only allow relay for local addresses and use the local IP.
 
The "solution" to close the relay is to "Disable SMTP AUTH reporting" and have all e-mail clients use SMTP AUTH, is at:

I'm using version 7.07 and wondering if in fact I am open and how to further lock down our server.
 
Thanks,

Bruce
