Re: [Assp-user] How to change outbound server IP?

[Javier A. <in...@ln...>]

Hi there,

        Right , you need to either whitelist in your MTA the sender 
pos...@ma...  or change the ASSP sender to something that looks 
external to your MTA.
        The problem is that in certain circumstances the second option will 
not work. I mean in those cases where the message is targeted to an external 
domain. Because in that case, the email would look comming from an external 
source, and targeted to an external domain... A flagrant relay...

        IMHO what you should do, is to go back to your previous setup with 
relay disabled, and specififcally allow relaying to pos...@ma... no 
matter where it comes from. Now.. if that is possible with your MTA, I don't 
know.

        Also I think that changing the default address from 127.0.0.1 to 
another thing... would not solve the problem. And if it solves it, then your 
MTA is capable of doing the SAME thing, but at 127.0.0.1

        Finally... if nothing works... but changing the default does it.. 
then you could find the 3 places where the default 127.0.0.1 is written in 
assp.pl and change them in, you would need to do that every time you upgrade 
of course, but it isn't difficult.

        Regards!
