Hi. You can post the header of one of the spam messages here. Also, you can test your mail server relay (if open to outside world) by simply trying yourself from any ISP to relay messages through your box, OR you can test online. Go to http://www.abuse.net/relay.html and in the form just enter the first field [Address to test:(as host name or dotted quad)] and click [Test for relay].
Also, there are Postfix mailing lists you can search for similar problems: postfix-users: http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=postfix-users&r=1&w=2 Al-Juhani [EMAIL PROTECTED] ----- Original Message ----- From: "Nicholas Marsh" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Monday, December 23, 2002 00:25 Subject: Postfix SPAM Issue Clarification > Sorry, I didn't give enough info in the previous message.
