Hello.
I have installed scalix on suse 10. All works fine but now i noticed that sendmail work as open smtp relay. When somebody known my IP he can send at about my server. what can I do..?

Sendmail should only be listening on 127.0.0.1, the Scalix SMTP Relay should be listening on the server's IP address. Are you certain sendmail listening on the that IP address? Did you overwrite the sendmail.cf file since installing Scalix? If so, you need to run omsendin to reconfigure your sendmail.cf file.

Thanks,
Rachel
