I was under the impression that all submission > should take place on 587. You can do whatever you want with your own server. It makes sense to me to do what is easiest to maintain and happens to be more powerful and flexible. Simplicity is a bonus when you are just figuring things out. >>> main.cf: >>> >>> smtpd_recipient_restrictions = >>> reject_unauth_destination, >>> permit >> >> You've got a lot to add to this one.
