There are two "Allowed IPs" settings in iMS - one for the Relay server and the other for the SMTP server.
For the Relay server, this controls a group of IPs that are allowed to relay through the Relay server (the relay server is not used by FusionMail but is, instead, provided as a way of facilitating mail from automated processes like CFMAIL or the like). For the SMTP Server, this setting controls a group of IPs that are "flagged" as being allowed to relay through the SMTP Server. What this means is that the SMTP Server is not allowing or denying relay based on these settings. What it does is it sets the IPALLOWED variable that is available to your ColdFusion templates as a NO or YES depending upon whether the connected IP is in the allowed range or not. Then, you can decide in your CFML code whether to allow relay or not. You can use the Allowed IP functionality in FusionMail version 2.5 or higher (there should be a setting in the FusionMail administrator to enable this).
