Relay test result
Hmmn, at first glance, host appeared to accept a message for relay.
THIS MAY OR MAY NOT MEAN THAT IT'S AN OPEN RELAY.
Some systems appear to accept relay mail, but then reject messages internally rather than delivering them, but you cannot tell at this point whether the message will be relayed or not.

It looks like it is failing to pass test 9. Is this a false positive or is it an actual open relay?
If it is, how can I fix this and/or test it to make sure i'm secure?
Thanks
