in your mail you told how to make it, if you use sendmail. Sendmail is a very old mta. What have you to do if you want to fix the relayingproblem by using qmail. qmail is a replacement for sendmail, has more performance and more security.
If this isn't a complete line of crap I don't know what is. ftp.sendmail.org ls -l pub/sendmail/sendmail.8.11.1.tar.gz -rw-r--r-- 1 gshapiro sendmail 1315141 Sep 28 18:30 sendmail.8.11.1.tar.gz That doesn't look to old to me. To be correct actually, sendmail has done a pretty good source code audit of sendmail. They've also added alot of features to help improve security. The reason most people switch to qmail is because they cannot figure out the sendmail configuration as its pretty confusing. Sendmail can be made "secure" easily. Sendmail has been around since the beginning of time yes, and it has had its share of major security problems, but I do feel that a properly configured sendmail box will outperform qmail. Not to mention that sendmail has alot of the features needed by big companies whereas qmail does not. I do not want to start a "sendmail vs. qmail" war here, I just hate seeing people spew crap out of their mouth about issues like this. -miah
