Unfortunately there's no way to distinguish between your server and a random zombie sending out messages on behalf of a spammer that is controlling it remotely. Therefore, most blacklists block incoming mail from dynamic (or dial-up/adsl) addresses. In most cases, getting a static address won't help either. Sometimes the bad guys ruin it for the rest of us. What you should do is use your ISP's SMTP server as a 'magic relay'. This way you can still use your mail server for queuing and making sure the mail leaves your outbox quickly, but instead of going directly to its destination it will be sent to your ISP's SMTP server who will forward it on. Incidently, this is also the quickest way to do it, since the connection to your ISP's mail server is usually faster than the recipient's mail server. - Aviram ================================================================= To unsubscribe, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the word "unsubscribe" in the message body, e.g., run the command echo unsubscribe | mail [EMAIL PROTECTED]
