Thanks kedar
we are using RH5.02, The users are not directly connect to our server ,
They connect to their respective ISP's. The ip's they get is dynamic
The users send and download mails
by configuring
POP3 (incomming ) mta.neilsoft.com
SMTP :mta.neilsoft.com
in their mail client like outlook, eudora etc.
so should I add in /etc/mail/access
[EMAIL PROTECTED] RELAY
("neilsoft" is the username i use to connect to vsnl,pune)
regards
Sandeep
