Supposedly, relay is restricted by default on Exchange 2000 but apparently I have changed something...and now cannot get it reset. In the smtp virtual, I have set relay restrictions by specifying only those in the list..and there are no ips or domains in the list. However, there must be something else because I can send mail off the server remotely without authenticating.
I have tried some other settings and have only been successful at stopping all mail from flowing. What, besides the relay option must be configured?

Check your authentication for your SMTP server, make sure only Integrated Windows Authentication is selected and make sure the box you are relaying from is not a domain member. Also make sure the user sending does not have an account on the Exchangeserver.
