Hi All,
I have a mailserver which is getting abused by spammers. It is right now an
open relay and has been blocked by major sites.
[email protected]
(host f.mx.mail.yahoo.com[209.191.88.247] refused to talk to me: 421 4.7.1
[TS03] All messages from 125.21.188.69 will be permanently deferred;
Retrying will
NOT succeed. See http://postmaster.yahoo.com/421-ts03.html)

I checked out SMTP auth also using command line :-
[r...@mail ~]# telnet 0 25
Trying 0.0.0.0...
Connected to 0 (0.0.0.0).
Escape character is '^]'.
220 mail.orgltd.com ESMTP Welcome to my mailserver
ehlo localhost
250-mail.orgltd.com
250-PIPELINING
250-SIZE 10485760
250-VRFY
250-ETRN
250-AUTH LOGIN PLAIN
250-AUTH=LOGIN PLAIN
250 8BITMIME
AUTH PLAIN c3VtaXQuZ3VsYXRpAHN1bWl0Lmd1bGF0aQBzdW1pdDEyMw==
235 Authentication successful
But when i use telnet to send mail , it goes w/o authentication: -
[r...@mail ~]# telnet 0 25
Trying 0.0.0.0...
Connected to 0 (0.0.0.0).
Escape character is '^]'.

Here is my postconf -n : -

Any ideas what could be the issue for SMTP AUTH not working and server
acting as open relay ?
