Outgoing e-mails are sent to their destinations through an SMTP
server which in the standard CERN configuration for mail clients
set to `smtp.cern.ch'
. To prevent spammers from
routing unsolicited messages through CERN machines e-mails are
rejected if neither the sender machine nor the recipient address is
in the CERN domain. As a side effect users who are at home or
travelling will not be able to send mail to someone outside CERN
using a CERN machine as their SMTP server. Two solutions are
possible for this problem:
postmaster@cern.ch
requesting the relay to be allowed and stating when the event will
end. N.B. by default, relaying will be allowed for 1 week.
