Figure 4-21 Inbound relay controls 6. Make the desired changes to the inbound relay control fields and click Save & Close. The server configuration document in Figure 4-21 depicts a server that does not allow any relaying to occur. By specifying an asterisk (*) in either or both of the Deny fields, Domino will not relay any mail for external hosts and will not allow any users to use this server as a relay. If you find that your domain is being reported as an open relay, you would want to close down the capability. The settings shown are the correct representation of a closed relay. The following two tables show the results of some sample inbound relay configurations, and some that should be avoided. Table 4-3 Sample inbound relay configurations Allow to Deny to Allow from Deny from Result of inbound relay setting * No hosts will be allowed to relay mail through the Domino server * abc.com abc.com can relay to any destination. All other hosts will not be allowed to relay any mail xyz.com * All hosts will be allowed to relay messages to xyz.com, but not to any other domain. 58 Lotus Domino 6 spam Survival Guide for IBM eServer
