Hello,

While reviewing the daily logs, I happened to notice that I have miles and
miles of "rejected mail hosts" in the /var/log/maillog file.

Who are these, where do they come from and why do I have so many?  As long
as they are rejected do I care?  Or is there more to do to protect myself?

Thanks
Randy
