Now how are you getting that to work? Here's what I get then I try that via telnet on my secondary going to my primary:571 <[EMAIL PROTECTED]@hypertouch.com> we do not relay. 571 <[EMAIL PROTECTED]@67.41.229.20> we do not relay. 571 <[EMAIL PROTECTED]@[67.41.229.20]> we do not relay.Is 67.41.229.20 the address of your SIMS server? Is it in the Client Hosts list?Try using the address of another host in the Client Hosts list and see what message you get (and use the third form of address above). I think why I'm seeing it is I have SIMS behind a NAT router. SIMS sees it's address as 192.168.1.3. The public address is 66.92.131.28 which is the NAT router - all port 25 traffic is forwarded to 192.168.1.3. I noticed this because I ran the relay test at telnet://relay-test.mail-abuse.org. It tries to send a message to nobody%mail-abuse.org@[66.92.131.28]. At the time, I had 66.92.131.28 in the Client Host list (it's gone now as there is no reason for it). Since in SIMS view, 66.92.131.28 was a client that was not itself, it accepted the message. But it didn't get relayed, it just looped infinitely since it sent it on to 66.92.131.28 which was itself although SIMS did not know that. My thinking is that for some reason in Paul's case, the [IPaddress] part is getting stripped when it reaches the primary leaving just user@outsidehost which then gets relayed. But why that might be happening I have no idea. -- Larry Stone
That is exactly what is happen. I have log file snippets that show just that. My servers were actually letting through 3 or 4 variations of that relay hack. And my point is that SIMS should not be allowing this to happen but for some strange reason it was.
