My current HeloDomain is set to one of my domains (The first one I had,

that domain or a name under it.

I was wondering if maybe it would be better to set my HeloDomain to what 
my IP resolves to, or maybe even RootDomain? (I wouldn't chnge 
POP3Domain because that would require people to change their settings, 
and it has nothing to do with it anyway)

What do you think? What could be the implications of the current status, 
and of changing it? Does it even matter (SPAM scores maybe? I don't know..)?

Thanks to all who answered, I changed my HeloDomain. :) Now I'm 
wondering - Should I change my RootDomain as well? What does RootDomain 
do, anyway?The Readme just says Indicate the primary domain for the 
server.. From what I saw, its function is when answering a HELO 
somedomain.com in an incoming SMTP session with 250 RootDomain. Is 
that RootDomain's only use? If so, when does it matter?

I think RootDomain allows user of that domain to log in without using

[EMAIL PROTECTED] can login olny with user if domain.com is rootdomain

AFAIK that's POP3Domain...

Yes, the HELO and the RDNS of your outgoing IP should be the same to =
avoid
other software complaining.

Other software would complain only at peril of violation of RFC-2821,=20
section 4.1.4:
