Hello all, The problem with my sendmail is
for eg: my domain name is xyz.com and sendmail is installed here. suppose if a user from another domain abc.com uses my sendmails smtp server(xyz.com) the user can be able to send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED](my domain) this is not good, bcos i haven't give any domain names to RELAY in my /etc/mail/access file. But he cannot be able to send mails to another domain using my smtp server( this is good and isworking so no problem with this). What I need is I want to disable or Should not allow to RELAY any domain using my smtp server to send mail to my domain(xyz.com).
