As per my understanding, the said restriction class HOLD_OK, will reject the messages if the recipient domain does not match to the relay domains. If it matches the relay domains, it will pass on to the next restriction, i.e. client access restriction and since we are using static:HOLD, the lookup results will always be HOLD. As 'HOLD' does not imply OK, it will check the next restriction, which is permit. If I omit permit, by default it may use reject or discard. Regards, Santosh Malavade
