OS/2 Sendmail (was: Mail store and forward gateway setup)

[Wilson Rook]

There is so much stuff in Sendmail.  Even the Sendmail.cf for os/2 is many many lines long.  

When you say IBM send mail does not support relay, what is this based on.  Have you tried 
adding the sendmail 8.9.3 stuff to an IBM sendmail.cf file.  (No disrespect intended)

Even if you can not block relay outright, could you filter for approved IP address and valid local 
domains?

I have been using PowerWeb which is a web server/email/ftpd package.  I have an external script
that does the filtering.  I'll post a copy on Monday.  (spam me if I forget).

OS/2 Sendmail, but I can't have my server open to relays...
