qmail rcpthosts question

hi,

i want to make sure that only the email sender with @domain.com are allow to send emails using my mailserver. i tried adding domain.com and .domain.com to rcpthosts. however, i later realized that only allows you to send emails to domain.com.

i'd like to figure out how to only allow email senders with *@domain.com to send through the mail server.

thanks in advance

justin

You're trying to prevent unauthorized people from relaying mail through your server, aren't you?

You're going about this the wrong way. Anyone can send mail as joeschmoe@domain.com. Have a read of http://www.palomine.net/qmail/relaying.html which lists several solutions.
