This has been discussed many times on this list.
This test is erroneous. As the message says "It appeared to accept ..."
This doesn't mean that it DID accept the message.
This is a non-problem (as it is not a TRUE indication of your machine being
an open relay). Only if it actually DOES deliver the mail should you worry
(and unless you installed a patch to allow you to do this, then you
shouldn't worry(.
