Sendmail 8.9 claims to deny relaying by default, but I'm finding people from outside our server are still able to relay via us. Hope can I stop this? Besides building the new sendmail executable, did you actually change your /etc/sendmail.cf file? That configuration file is what actually controls forwarding. See the cf/README file in your sendmail source code and http://www.sendmail.org has some helpful resources. -- Crist J.
