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 ???
that's the same as if someone sends you a letter claiming tobe your
father and saying the same. it's a lie, not an open relay.
an open relay is when someone causes you to annoy someone else.
said otherwise: I don't care if joe tells your boss he is an asshole,
whomever joe might be. but I wouldn't be happy if _joe_ makes _you_ send
_me_ a message (whatever the message is).
I now SPF is ideal for avoid this behavior, but I think the first
example is an "open relay" feature.
Please don't talk about spf again on this list. spf devots are not
welcome here.
