You sure about that? The RSS uses about 14..15 tests. There is another (even more efficient) relaytester available at http://www.monkeys.com/mrt/ - you might want to try that as well. If the RSS says you have an open relay - you _do_ have an open relay, and what's more, your server has been hijacked by a spammer and used to send out spam. That's clear, at any rate. > Can any body tell me how to remove the Ip address from > Mail Abuse Org. Database.. By closing your open relay and submitting it for a retest. If the retest says 'not an open relay' your IP will be removed. > We are running sendmail 8.11 ... which defaults to 'not an open relay' by default. Have you [for example] committed one of these common goofups - 1. Set FEATURE(`relay_local_from') so that <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> or whatever can send mail through your server? 2. Or maybe From: tatainfotech.com RELAY in access.db? 3. Set FEATURE(`promiscuos_relay')? 4. Configured sendmail with linuxconf so that it will relay for something like bangpath / percentage pathing etc? -srs -- Suresh Ramasubramanian <----> mallet <at> efn dot org EMail Sturmbannfuhrer, Lower Middle Class Unix Sysadmin _______________________________________________ linux-india-help mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/linux-india-help
