I thought you folks here on this list would know more than most about sendmail, so while I'm not an ISP (not today, not on this personal machine problem) I think this is the right audience. I just got a mail from ORBS (http://www.orbs.org/) telling me I'm an open mail relay on my home machine. I run current here, no mods, and since I thought that sendmail 8.9.3 came with relaying off by default, I didn't need to do anything to stop it. I checked my machine by logging into a different one, and sending mail to myself at a 3rd host, using my home machine (picnic.mat.net) as relay. Worked fine, but I was expecting ahd hoping for it to fail. Can someone tell me what I'm missing? All the stuff I can find on sendmail relay configuration is to carefully open up relaying (via lists to allow or deny some users) but I think I want to deny the universe.
