In looking at my /etc/hosts.allow file, I find the following line: ALL : ALL : allow then later in the file: sendmail : localhost : allow sendmail : .nice.guy.example.com : allow sendmail : .evil.cracker.example.com : deny sendmail : ALL : allow Shouldn't these lines be allowing everything needed for other domains to be able to check (those with valid accounts on my server) from my server and send mail to my server. Also, how does this file interact with sendmail and the /etc/mail/relay-domains files.
