Hold on. Eric, I only need to do this if my server is to be used for
outbound mail from the other server, correct? If all I am doing is
inbound mail only then I only need to edit the HOST only, correct?
I suddenly realized I am not using the 'Relay for Addresses' as I went
back to 'Relay for Local Users'. There is no way I can predict where
all my users are connecting from, so I really cannot use the first
method and if I am only screening incoming mail only, my understanding
is that I need not use the first method.
