I am getting this message in my spam folder...
This is a test of third-party mail relay, generated by the
"rlytest" <URL: http://www.unicom.com/sw/#rlytest> utility.
Target host = xxx.xxx.xxx.xx
Test performed by <po...@juicer35.xxxxxxx.com>
A well-configured mail server should NOT relay third-party email.
Otherwise, the server is subject to attack and hijack by Internet
vandals and spammers.
For information on how to secure a mail server against third-party
relay, visit <URL: http://maps.vix.com/tsi/>. James is not on the list of
how tos --
Question, how to avoid the potential relaying?
Is it just a matter of uncommenting the following?
