> I completely understand authentication for using my SMTP server for
an outgoing mail box. I have it set to require a pw in order to not
have an open relay.
Good!
> I simply want to forward mail received for a certain userâs mailbox
to an msn.com address. But apparently James doesnât differentiate
mail coming directly from outside going > outside (i.e. open relay)
from mail that has âarrivedâ for an approved mailbox and is simply
being routed out per configuration. It fails demanding
authentication.
Mail that has "arrived" *is* "mail coming directly from outside"
it is the destination which is relevant, if James recognises that it
is to be delivered locally authentication won't be required, so set
up a local user for this mail, make sure James is set up to handle
the domain and intercept it with a matcher before it is delivered and
redirect it back out.
>I donât want to do anything to affect the open relay issue. But how
do I tell James to not require authentication to forward mail?
Principle: tell james to handle the domain, and the users, then set
up redirects and forwarding instead of local delivery.
