Im on FreeBSD 4.8R. In my hosts.allow file, i have set my IPs to :allow and the last line is to deny all by default. so the server accepts only my incoming IPs. the problem is I have a webmail running so the mails also start to be rejected! i cannot see any new emails..although i set a line as follow in my hosts.allow sendmail : ALL : allow Any help? ideas please? How i can tune my hosts.allow to deny IPs and make the incoming emails outging just to be accepted from everywhere.?
