Thankx for clearifying the Use of " OPEN RELAY "
but what i ment to say was exactly what ALEX stated as :
>What Kai means, more accurately, is that, to _your customers_, you _are_ an
>open relay. This also means that to _viruses_ and _spyware_ running on your
>customers' machines, you _are_ an open relay.
And thankx for the Answers :
1.change REC_AUTH to REC_FULL_AUTH
2. SMTP AUTH
Now it will be great help here again - if any one can tell me one best HOWTO
which do'nt fuss up with MailScanner or any running Program.
