Re: Fw: [cobalt-users] SMTP problems - HELP!

["Fabian" <cobalt@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Dom...
Many thanks

you right!

If I put all the domains ext. like:
com
net
org
co.uk
com.ar
etc...
the smtp working fine but all the people can use it:-(

How I do it to use the smtp in my cobalt, but only my customers domains?

I put the IP´s and the domain names but not working.. only I can send
e-mails using the smtp to other e-mail within my cobalt:-( but not to all
the world...

I have a Cobalt RAQ3i with 256 MB of RAM...

Thanks in advance
regards
Fabian
