Hello list,
I have been running pop-b4-smtp with 1.4.1pre3 happily but I suspect that such
a facility can make a system an open relay even without notice. If , say one
of my users out there dials in to one of those services that are 'free' and
then does a pop, doesn't that imediately open your host for that particular
parent host to relay? By parent host I mean that particular server that assigned
them the IP to use. This is worse if that the IP is static (like a DSL
connection).
Is my idea vague.
