Ok, I have a question, that is not really BQ specific.but, perhaps the users
on this list have the same issue.  I have a pair of dedicated MX relays,
that do my spam/virus checking, as well as a few other things.  They forward
the email to my BQ box using the mailertable.  I wrote a script that keeps
the mailertable up to date, based on information created on the BQ server.
This all works fine.  However, its rather easy to bypass the MX servers, and
deliver email directly to the BQ server.  Is there a way to configure BQ to
only allow email FROM the MX servers, and at the same time still allow email
to be sent from the users, using the BQ as the outbound mail server?  

 

My only solution at this point, is to configure another box for outbound
mail only, and somehow sync up the user/pass information to it from BQ so
that you can still authenticate.  Suggestions?

 

Thanks,

Jeff
