Re: vsnl refuses smtp relay and linux box at home suffers

[Rajat Bhatia <Rajat.Bhatia@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,
Why do you want to use relay anyways,
Use sendmail to send the mails directly to target domains. I don't know how
to configure it though, but it works out of the box on my RH 6.2/7.1 system .

I have put '/usr/lib/sendmail -q' in my /etc/ppp/ip-up.local, and all the
queued mails get sent automatically when I log on to the net.
+ I can use any email address in the from field.

As for checking the sender IP, they did that long before they put in these
restrictions.
Regards,
Rajat
