does it mean i am doing a relay for ip 173.233.212.7
kindly help me understabd the above log
Nope. the log said, the server is opening port 25 for incoming
connection (email) from IP 173.233.212.7
what email? perhaps it spam. have you check your
/var/qmail/control/blacklists file? mine is
-r zen.spamhaus.org
to prevent more spam, please install spamdyke.
Instead of using 5 diffirent software packages running 1 functionality,
you could better intall an SPAM proxy like ASSP:
http://assp.sourceforge.net/
It has all the features like Qmail toaster and more..I never install any
spam measures in my MTA , I want to keep it clean and let the spam proxy
on port 25 do all the work for me.
