thanks.  I tested anonymously and it said that relaying was accepted, but
that it may give false positives with that kind of test.  Now I setup a
password and I can't test again for awhile.

Go to http://www.abuse.net/relay.html to test if your mail server is an
open relay.



One of our customers AS/400 SMTP servers was used a number of time by
spammers to relay junk mail.

We installed PTF SF52864 to stop this.  Is there a way that we can test
that
we locked it down properly?

Our ISP who shut us down said they have no way of testing it.
