Re: [cobalt-security] POP before SMTP



But surely the point of this (as documented) is so you can have users on
dynamic IP's and yet relay via the server from these - providing they have
authenticated via POP3 in order for their current IP to be captured and
added to the "permitted" SMTP relay list for the set time...

Maybe I'm reading this all wrong :-(
