If you chose to forward mail this way, then you'd better make sure that the destination mail server doesn't apply spf checks for mails coming from the relaying server. or that the forwarding server rewrites the sender address. If you're a provider that allows its users to forward their mail to remote addresses, then I'd advise you to use sender rewriting and thus offer your customers a reliable mail relaying. That's a marketing argument. But in the end, everyone can do whatever they want to do ;-) Jean-Pierre -- HILOTEC Engineering + Consulting AG - Langnau im Emmental Energietechnik und Datensysteme: Server, PCs, Linux, Telefonanlagen, VOIP, Hosting, Datenbanken, Entwicklung, Komplettlösungen für KMUs Tel: +41 34 402 74 00 - http://www.hilotec.com/ _______________________________________________ swinog mailing list [email protected] http://lists.swinog.ch/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/swinog
