the mail log should be sufficient to verify whether it's an open relay

grep -v ^# /etc/postfix/main.cf

and post the output




"/usr/sbin/postconf -n" will do the same AND show what has been changed from
the default settings.


masquerade_exceptions = root

If you have not edited this file before sending to the mailinglist there
does not seem to be a mynetworks parameter can you post out

/usr/sbin/postconf -n mynetworks
If you have not mynetworks defined that could be your problem area make
sure it reprsesents your network


In main.cf, the mynetworks line is commented out. I have enabled it, with the local network address. I'll have to see if that works.


It didn't work. I tried a test, using http://members.iinet.net.au/~remmie/relay/
and the test message was relayed by the server. It also appeared in /var/log/mail.
