Re: [Declude.Virus] SMTP AUTH - Imail v6.06
- Original Message - (IMail v6.06 - SMTP AUTH) We need to enable SMTP AUTH for all of our clients -- we've found some device/person (IP) on the outside of our network spoofing emails to lists by the few users who are authorized list posters. In order to do this, is it best that we just check No Mail Relay on the server and make all of our users go through the few steps to do SMTP AUTH? However, I don't believe that will prevent people from sending mail to the list using forged return addresses, since SMTP AUTH only applies to outgoing (relayed) E-mail. -Scott In reply, doesn't IMail (SMTP AUTH) not allow email to be relayed unless a password is supplied during login?

If that is true -- then how could someone forge a return address without having a password to send mail? If you require SMTP AUTH, then users have to supply a valid E-mail address and password. However, that only applies to *relayed* mail (outgoing mail). For incoming mail (such as to a mailing list), SMTP AUTH is not required (or else you wouldn't be able to receive any mail from anyone who didn't have an account on the server). -Scott --- [This E-mail was scanned for viruses by Declude Virus (http://www.declude.com)] This E-mail came from the Declude.Virus mailing list.

If you require SMTP AUTH, then users have to supply a valid E-mail address and password Do Imail compare this adress to the from adress you use ? - Original Message - From: R.

In order to do this, is it best that we just check No Mail Relay on the server and make all of our users go through the few steps to do SMTP AUTH? That's the best way to make sure that you are not an open relay (you could instead use Relay for Addresses, and enter some safe IP addresses, and have everyone not coming from those IPs use SMTP AUTH ).

Yes, your absolutely right. You can include your internal addresses, if applicable, in the addresses box to insure your own systems won't need auth if you wish.
