no protocol level rejection?

[bill parducci]

i have been playing with james (2.1) and am wondering if i have misconfigured my server because i don't see protocol level reject of [open] relay requests, but rather it forwards such requests to the spam folder after accepting them (250). i am concerned about this since most automated open relay tests would consider this an open relay because they are looking for a 550 response in this situation.

from the configs, this seems to be the appropriate place to handle relay limitations:

<mailet match="RemoteAddrNotInNetwork=127.0.0.1" class="ToProcessor">
<processor> spam </processor>
</mailet>

i verfied that it is working by including a variety of ip addresses and sending (relaying) mail from them. again, when a server is not in the list the note is *accepted* then tossed into the spam folder, otherwise it is forwared.

i verified the behavior via telnet thus:
mail server: deedee.bar.com
remote server: foo.com

foo.com> telnet deedee.bar.com 25
Connected to deedee.bar.com.

is there a way to get james to address this at the protocol level?

thanks
