Go to the SMTP virtual server and go under relay and make sure the radio button is checked "only these servers may relay". ________________________________ From: Nicolas Verhaeghe [mailto:nicolas@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Mon 8/8/2005 1:45 PM To: [ExchangeList] Subject: [exchangelist] How to prevent unauthorized use of my SMTP server? http://www.MSExchange.org/ How do I make sure that my SMTP server is not open to the rest of the world? It seems that I need to have port 25 opened in my firewall to allow incoming mail, but when I do that, don't I risk letting outsiders use my SMTP to send their spam? How can I monitor this activity and also how can I make sure that no non-authenticated users use my Exchange server? Thanks a lot! ------------------------------------------------------ List Archives: http://www.webelists.com/cgi/lyris.pl?enter=exchangelist Exchange Newsletters: http://www.msexchange.org/pages/newsletter.asp ------------------------------------------------------ Visit TechGenix.com for more information about our other sites: http://www.techgenix.com ------------------------------------------------------ You are currently subscribed to this MSEXchange.org Discussion List as: agonzalez@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe visit http://www.webelists.com/cgi/lyris.pl?enter=exchangelist Report abuse to listadmin@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx
