Have you put your internally hosted domain into the local domains list?

OK, do you enter them into spamfilter like one:domain.qc.ca or like doamin.qc.ca ? If your email addresses are spamdude@domain.qc.ca you should only have domain.qc.cq in the local domains |

If you are entering one:cabit.qc.ca you need to remove the one: part unless that is actually part of your FQDN. Also make certain there are no spces at the end of each domain name and that they are all on separate lines. As one:cabit.qc.ca is an invalid domain name this is likely your problem. Spamfilter looks to see if the domain is a local one or rejects as a relay attempt. In this scenario spamfilter would have cabit.qc.ca and would not find it in the local domain lists as it would see one:cabit.qc.ca which doesn't match. |

This list looks just right. Remember spamfilter is for incoming mail only. You should not be sending mail out through spamfilter. |

Alain, Wayne has been extremely helpful in helping you, please note what he mentioned in one of his postings. SpamFilter is designed to handle your incoming email traffic only. You should not use the IP SpamFilter is listening on for your "outgoing smtp server" in your email client (outlook, eudora, etc) configuration, as SpamFilter will not relay those messages to the internet. There are several posting on this, with examples on how to configure your setup. Roberto Franceschetti |

Yes that is correct. SpamFilter will not allow to relay emails to domains that are not in your "Local Domains".
There are two ways to allow this to happen. (1) you can add the IP address(es) you will be using outside your network to an IP whitelist. All whitelisted IPs in SpamFilter are allowed to relay. (2) you can implement outgoing SMTP authentication. SpamFilter can authenticate SMTP clients (SSL is supported too) using either Active Directory, an LDAP directory, or Unix-style password files. Authenticated clients are also able to use SpamFilter to relay their emails anywhere. |
