[Jboss-dev-forums] [Design of Mail Services] - Mail Relay.

[mikezzz <nu...@jb...>]

Hi,

I am currently looking at JBMAIL-33, 34, 35 which is to do with mail relaying.  I'm not an expert on relaying but here is my understanding:

- A relay request is any email from an SMTP client that requires delivery to a non-local domain.  This is partially supported by JBMail (depending on the settings specified).

- This also may include requests that contain source routing information. Source routing information (according to the RFC) should be stripped off and ignored.  Not supported, needs to be implemented.

- Should be configurable to enable/disable relaying for:  Authenticated Users, Verified Indentities, clients from within a set of domains, clients from within a set of ip ranges.

- Any RCPT command that requests disallowed relaying, will be met with a 550 error.  It will configurable as to whether the email is sent to the remaining recipients or denyed completely.

Does this sound sane?

Mike.
