Bringing this back on the topic of SuSE Linux...
It should be pointed out that the Yast2 Installation and configuration of Postfix ENABLES RELAYING BY DEFAULT, and it offers NO ability to turn this off. You have to dig into the postfix settings and wade thru the postfix clear as mud documentation on their site.
Uh, I don't know how you managed to come to that conclusion. The default installation of Postfix is to listen to localhost only and allow only localhost to send mails. That is a bit different from what you describe. Anything else is something you define, whether it is through yast or by editing the config files. You probably misunderstood something when you configured the system. Sandy
