Thanks but, is it right if coming from Internet I enter to your mail server and after that I send a message from your mail account to your project manager's mail account telling he's an asshole ???

I now SPF is ideal for avoid this behavior, but I think the first example is an "open relay" feature.

Thanks a lot.


Hi Alejandro,

The example you described is not relaying.

Relaying is when the MTA you connected to needs to send the message to another server. Being an "open relay" means the MTA will receive messages for anyone on the Internet to anyone on the Internet.

Hope that clears things up.
