Is the /etc/mail/relay-domains the correct file to be using No. You use the access database to enable relaying by clients. Put all your local IP addresses in the access database (actually a plain text file that you compile to a database). If 127.2.3/24 is local for you, then one entry in 'access' would be: 127.2.3 RELAY > - what should go in here? the IP addresses pool for the NAS - what > entries would be required for staff accessing over the internet? For remote access from variable IP addresses, you need to implement POP before SMTP, or better yet sendmail 8.10 SMTP-AUTH. There are pointers to this stuff at www.sendmail.org/~ca If purchasing the software and support is an option, suggest you look at www.sendmai.com for a nice web based admin interface, and support included. > Any assistance would be appreciated, > Marcus -bryan To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
