    Ive been round the houses, finally had to re-install, the earlier spam
    serving had generated 1gb of mail failure slips queing up. (hence the
    spiralling Inetinfo)

    Whats the difference between "Relay" and "Authentication"

    If I tell relay to only allow computers (duh users?) who have succesfully
    authenticated and "Only the [empty] list below" is ticked...then RELAY IS
    STILL POSSIBLE!! without authentication by others.
