We do this very simply. We use submission (587) with ssl and authentication for road warriors. we don't greylist 587, and we don't take unauthenticated un-ssl'ed connections on it. We tell people *not* to use port 25 for this sort of thing. Spammers don't authenticate on port 587 so there is no spam danger. -Bob * Wayne Walker <[email protected]> [2005-08-03 10:09]: > On Wed, Aug 03, 2005 at 05:40:27AM -0500, Evan Harris wrote: > > > > Depends on the implementation you're using. > > > > relaydelay supports this as a standard feature, and has for quite a while. > > Look in the source for the string "Mail delivery is authenticated. > > Skipping checks." if you are interested in the details. > > > > Evan > How do we turn this on?
