They say Postfix is NOT an open relay out-of-the-box. I believer them because it won't work for you out-of-the-box. But when I configured it to use my own hostname, domain, and network address, it was declared an open relay by 2 blacklists after a few hours because it kept relaying mails to thousands of "<some domains>.ru" addresses! What is the quickest way to "close" its "openness?" I've already tried the various "smtpd_client_restrictions, ....sender_restrictions, ek-ek, to no avail. " I've gone around the world thru cyberspace, but all the solutions I've seen, including pop-before-smtp, haven't closed all the holes! -samboy . _________________________________________________ IncrediMail - Email has finally evolved - Click Here ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This email and any files transmitted with it are confidential and intended solely for the use of the individual or entity to whom they are addressed.
