Yes, that is wrong way to do it. Correct way is to use smtp auth or define ip addresses manually to tcp-server. It mainly requires public and static not dhcp-addresses > So I changed the qmail-smtp port to 2525, which worked, but now I > can't get incoming mail from other people, so I changed it back to 25. It is server side, yes, only 25 port. > So I'm a little confused... how do I set up a mail server to not be an > open relay, but allow certain users to authenticate and connect to > send mail through the server, yet still accept mail to any domain on > the box from any other sender? smtp auth is on the box in shupp.org installation, it works without any modifications. Server receives any email to rcphosts domains and only allows authenticated users to send mail to other domains, got it? -- Eero
