Can you cite any legitimate use for a completely open relay? I can't
think of any. Lacking such examples, I agree with Scott G. Taylor's

The simple fact-of-the-matter is, open relays are
wrong.
I run a mail server myself, as no doubt do many other list members.
I would *NEVER* configure one as an open relay.
