Messaging Messaging 4.15, Patch level 6.

[WMickey]

Our unix system is not connected to the internet. We can send internal company mail but get a 551 - Delivery not allowed to non-local recipient when I try to send outside of the internal network/a user not on our netscape system.

My question is... is there something we can do through MTA or antirelay config to allow messages to be sent external from this unix box???

It seems to know the difference between an internal user and an external user. How is this accomplished?

I'm at a loss but we need to be able to mail externally from our unix system and have the ANTI RELAY PLUGIN installed. Installed but no one here seems to understand much about changing it ,etc.

Please help!
Thanks,
Bill

Try this one..

2.9) Netscape Messaging Server

Netscape messaging server version 3.5 has anti-spam feature called UBE filters which can be used to block
unauthorized relaying and if you're running an earlier version you need to upgrade to version3.5.

For more information refer to:

http://home.netscape.com/eng/Messaging/guide35/ch5.htm

If you're using NMS version 4.0, you need to upgrade to version 4.15 and use the Anti-Relay plug-in to block relaying.

For more information, refer to:

Get first your unix box connected to the internet.
See the README.antirelay file (look in the <server dir>/plugins/antirelay directory for the file) for how to set-up the antirelay plugin. Remember to chown and chgrp the file antirelay.so to the user and group underwhich the server is running.
Use the following as an example for your own config file:
------------------------------------
# Anti-relay File for <your domain name> domain
resolvehostname:0
useauthinfo:1
advertiseauthinfo:0

# The following lines make sure that the SMTP server will
# accept mail that are addressed to these recipients:
#
delivery:*@some.domain.com
delivery:*@another.domain1.com
delivery:*@another.domain2.com
#
# The following lines make sure that messages coming from
# these domains or hosts are know hosts and can use the
# SMTP server to send their messages.
#
# YOUR OWN NETWORK OR TRUSTED NETWORKS
#

submission:10.40.10.*
#localhost
submission:127.0.0.1
------------------------------------
Good luck.

I had the same &quot;551 - Delivery not allowed to non-local recipien&quot; problem, but it was because the local mailer was still the standard UNIX sendmail. The key was when I dod a `Mail -v <wherever>`. the output looked like it came from sendmail.

The solution was to re-link /usr/lib/sendmail (or /usr/sbin/sendmail) to /opt/netscape/server4/bin/msg/admin/bin/sendmail.

Mail from the command line or from the webmail interface worked correctly afterwards.
