I've done as i was told to in another post and put all domains in - Reject the following Users/Hosts/Domains

Which does everything i want it stops people sending emails through my server. But i tryed making it so that people still could using one 1 IP Address. This ip address is on the server. I've added this to the allowed to send mail through the server but it gives me the Send Error: 550 ... Mail rejected due to possible SPAM. I've also added localhost to the list ... But i've noticed if i block the server ip aswell i can't send anything. Anyway around this?
I don't want to let mail through that ip.

I'm not sure about the one IP address thing, why would you want to do that? That is just as bad. Just uninstall/disable POP-Auth and no mail will go out.

All mail sent internally (ie. via perl, php, asp, cold fusion) will appear to have come from the root IP of the server, even if the website is on a different domain/IP.

At linux prompt type hostname to set/view the hostname of the PC, then add this to list.
