Postfix as a relay
My setup is currently to have postfix relay all messages through my isp's smtp server, and it's doing so only from local IPs. This poses two problems: One, i'd like to be able to access my smtp server from outside the local network, so i need to know how to secure it. Two, i would like to have certain mail addresses - specifically, messages addressed to local users - more specifically, root and postmaster (for logging notifications) - - not be relayed. Can someone help me with this? I admit, my configuration is more luck than anything, and i'm really nervous about altering it, since the current setup is A) working and B) kind of important, given that all my email comes in to this server and is sent to my local imap server. So postfix being dead could really toast my personal mail system.
Anyone up to the task?
