I don't have experience myself with Webshield, but someone else can point
out where to add the domains you want to relay for in Webshield.  It will
mimic something like this:

DOMAIN TO ACCEPT MAIL FOR               DESTINATION IP ADDRESS OF IMAIL SERVER
yourdomain.com                          IP ADDRESS
yourotherdomain.com                     IP ADDRESS


If you choose to RELAY ALL MAIL, this will be the result

DOMAIN TO ACCEPT MAIL FOR               DESTINATION IP ADDRESS
hotmail.com                             ANY IP ADDRESS
msn.com                         IP ADDRESS
farmlove.com                            IP ADDRESS
anydomain.com                           IP ADDRESS



The thing to remember is that the settings above have *nothing* to do with
where the sender is at or coming from.  I imagine there must be some
documentation for Webshield somewhere that would explain this.

Sorry I just don't understand what I need to do to make this work for me.

1. I want to make sure that I am not an open relay
2. I want to relay mail for all users on my Domain inside and outside of
our network

What settings do I need to setup to allow for this in Webshield and Imail?

Sorry to sound ignorant on how to accomplish this...just need a little
guidance...
