ok - going crazy I made a copy of my access file, and removed everything
execpt localhost. restart sendmail of course.
re-tried the abuse.net/relay.html site and it did not relay....
So then something in the file must be the issue. I put everything back
as it was, restart and tried again. it relayed.
I then commented the line:
192.168.1 RELAY
and restarted and retried. It did not relay.
I thought this line was a wildcard for anything 192.168.1.X - not open
the world for relaying.
