[KLUG Members] Testing for open-relay.

[Tim Gray]

Thanks for the ORDB links and warnings...  I figure if they postmaster
here is running an open relay, then the subsequent banning from all ordb
users' inboxes will be a good incentive to correct the situmation.

Insofar as netdemon goes...

Do you have a link for what you're talking about.  The only netdemon I
can find is a trojan for Win32 systems.

You did, or course, suggest a Linux tool, not a windows tool, right? 
*grin*

OTOH, whil searching, I also found:

http://www.linux-sec.net/Mail/openrelay.gwif.html

With instructions for manually testing it.
