In our case, the mail is not going to be relayed but delivered localy. It's the responsibility of the admin to decide what envelope From (and other stuff) he is going to accept. The default should stay open. > can someone else running a production postfix server comment on this? Well...let's just say that if your DNS is flaky, this wouldn't be a good option to add. The message will be rejected with a 4xx code, meaning the sending host will try for a few days and then stop. It catches some spam, though. IMO, if the volume of spam is of concern to an admin, he should read the docs and fix it himself. bye, -- Borut [EMAIL PROTECTED] ----------------- Always remember you're unique, just like everyone else.
