You will find the inbound relay controls on the server configuration document. Select Router/SMTP → Restrictions and Controls → SMTP Inbound Controls. These two fields shown in Figure 4-19 determine the names of the hosts that this Domino Server will relay mail to (Destination). Figure 4-19 Inbound relay controls (Destination host settings) These fields are used to explicitly enter the name of those hosts that you want this server to relay to, or those that you specifically want to prohibit. When an entry is placed in the Allow field, only the hosts listed in this field will be allowed to be relayed to, all others will be denied. When you place an entry in the deny field, only those domains listed will be denied, all other domains are allowed. If entries exist in both the allow and the deny fields, the entries in the Deny field will take precedence over the same entries in the Allow field. Important: Because you configure the valid relay destinations separately from the valid relay sources, conflicts between the two sets of restrictions can occur. When such conflicts occur, Lotus Domino requires instructions for resolving the conflict. In Lotus Domino 5, Deny entries took precedence over Allow entries; in Lotus Domino 6, Allow entries take precedence over Deny entries. The next two fields deal with the connecting hosts (Source). These are used to specify the hosts that this Domino server will relay mail for. Figure 4-20 Inbound relay controls (Source Host settings) Chapter 4. Domino 6 Server anti-spam features 55

These two fields shown in Figure 4-19 determine the names of the hosts that this
Domino Server will relay mail to (Destination).
Figure 4-19
Inbound relay controls (Destination host settings)
These fields are used to explicitly enter the name of those hosts that you want
this server to relay to, or those that you specifically want to prohibit. When an
entry is placed in the Allow field, only the hosts listed in this field will be allowed
to be relayed to, all others will be denied. When you place an entry in the deny
field, only those domains listed will be denied, all other domains are allowed. If
entries exist in both the allow and the deny fields, the entries in the Deny field will
take precedence over the same entries in the Allow field.
The next two fields deal with the connecting hosts (Source). These are used to
specify the hosts that this Domino server will relay mail for.

Important:
Because you configure the valid relay
destinations
separately from
the valid relay
sources
, conflicts between the two sets of restrictions can
occur. When such conflicts occur, Lotus Domino requires instructions for
resolving the conflict. In Lotus Domino 5, Deny entries took precedence over
Allow entries; in Lotus Domino 6, Allow entries take precedence over Deny
entries.
