Re: Relaydelay on main mail server?

If you check the CVS version of relaydelay.pl there is code in it to check 
the domain of the mail against the sendmail access.db file.  If it finds the 
domain with a RELAY or FRIEND designation it bypasses the other checks.

I think I will upgrade to the CVS version - even though it is pre-release. 
Note that this change was logged in on Jul 23  2003, so if we wait for this 
be released before we implement it when might be waiting a while :-)    
Don't get me wrong, the script works a treat and you can't beat the price 
(free) so I am happy with whatever I can get.
