Jonn, Adding "mail.company.com" to smtprelay tab (if it were possible) would permit ANYONE to relay through your server as long as they forged the from address. - Not desirable.
Your issue - I need clarification I think. Let me get this straight; You have Xmail server and squirrelmail on the same server - Yes? You wish to login to SM and send mail from a user at a domain you host - Yes? You need to distinguish between HTTP and SMTP. If your users are using a web browser to access SM, then they are using HTTP. SM itself will use SMTP to send the email to the MTA (your mail in this case). So the bit that Xmail is concerned with is between SM and Xmail, not SM and the rest of the world. Your smtprelay tab is probably requiring "127.0.0.1" "255.255.255.255", as the IP address for localhost. Alternately, configure SM to use Auth-SMTP and then the user will be authenticated to send the email (at the SMTP level) and your problems will be gone. If you are not running Xmail & SquirrelMail on the same server, then the above concept still works, but you won't use 127.0.0.1, you will use the IP address of the local LAN.

Is there any possibility of instead of defining ip in the smtprelay tab, i'll just put in my domain? i.e. "mail.company.com" meaning, all mails coming from this domain relay is acceptable... __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
