It isn't an open rely, but when others try to use it as such with bad return addresses, a small flood of rejection mail end up on the bad addressed server. Ex. To: blah@msn.com From: fake@hotmail.com hotmail ends up with a ton of bounce msgs and thinks the server is a relay. How would I go about just dropping those msgs completely? Qmail is the mail server, but I was hoping someone would have an idea. -Derrick
