Hi All,
I am working on setting up Postfix and I have a few questions:
1. mynetworks = Do I put my public static IP here? So I am hosting at another provider on my own dedicated hardware. Do I put that machines IP or the IP of my apartment where I want to access from? Second, do I have to know the Ip information for my BlackBerry to work as well?
2. relaying: Obviously I dont want to be an open relay, but I do what to send mail from my apartment and from my Blackberry.
Ideas?

Only put your private IP network addresses here, not public ones.

put clients ip range there.
e.g
mynetworks = 192.168.0.0/24
then, clinets behind postfix mail server will be able to send mail via postfix server.

as i said the above under mynetworks, Pls add those ip ranges. then, u r done.

For dynamic IPs, like those assigned by home ISPs is not useful (besides stupid) adding the ISP's range (since the spammers will probably be windows machines using an IP from the same IP range than yours). What I did was implementing SMTP authentication, and then I can send e-amil from my e-mail client at home without my server being an open relay and without allowing the full ISP IP range to send mail through my mail server.
