For the internal network, we allow all machines to drop email. For the external network (hello Internet!), we only allow mail for our domains, and mail from people who can authenticate ourselves. There is no way we can force The World to authenticate towards us before they can drop mail, so we only force our own users :-) Edwin -- Edwin Groothuis | Personal website: http://www.mavetju.org e d w i n @ m a v e t j u . o r g | Weblog: http://weblog.barnet.com.au/edwin/ ---- email "unsubscribe aussie-isp" to m a j o r d o m o @ a u s s i e . n e t to be removed. |
