If your system is an open relay, close it. I have no idea how to do that with qmail--a web search will help. In fact, if your system is an open relay, you should disconnect it from the net until you have it closed. There are two reasons for that. The first is to stop the abuse of your system. The second is to keep your system from being added to lists of open relays or spam sources. -Warren Block * Rapid City, South Dakota USA To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
