This will also include messages being sent and determined if they will go through. Some public utilities, including rlytest, or spamlart, actually only look at the responses in the dialog, but for testing if a relay may be used for spam, I need to have a look if this really will relay or drops the message after accepting it. What I need/want to have is: a script/program/cgi (whatsoever), which does the following: is executed, takes as arguments the mail relay itself, perhaps also some adresses (from/to) and then tries to deliver mails in any of the known possibilites. After executing, it should display which checks could be positive, and then I'll wait for some time and look at my mail inbox for some new messages, which will have been relayed. So its nothing that is complicated... Well, just had a look at mrt from www.monkey.org, and it looks quite suitable, but looking for other suggestions...
