Hello!“Perform Anti-Relay enforcement for these connecting hosts: All connecting hosts”
doesnt perfom chekings for IP addresses that were specified in
“Allow messages only from the following internet hosts to be sent to external internet domains:” (Despite I set ALL HOSTS)
Its contrary with Domino 5.0.11 (where this thing works more than fine)
and does anyone know how to resolve it?

Its working as designed.
In R5, connecting hosts who’s ip address resolved to the same domain as the SMTP server were exempt from relay checks. So even you you explicity blocked them, they could still relay. There was an .ini variable (IIRC) to workaround this in later versions.
In ND6, this .ini moved into the UI, so that you can specify whether all hosts or just external hosts are subject to the relay check. the actual setting of who can or cannot relay are then applied to those connections.
So, if you don’t want a particular host to relay, don’t ‘Allow’ it in the relay controls.

So sad…Some times I need to block SOME messages from host that CAN relay (spam attack until they will see it and fix), any way to return R5 behavior?
Subject: RE: Perform Anti-Relay enforcement
Yes, just change that setting to local hosts only.
Subject: RE: Perform Anti-Relay enforcement
What exactly and where must I change?
Subject: RE: Perform Anti-Relay enforcement
I don’t have a Domino server to hand to be specific,You already know the setting, because you gave it in your original post.
If I recall correctly, that setting has two possible values, one is the ‘all host’ option, which is the ‘new’ R6 behaviour, or, the old R5 behaviour if modified via an .ini variable. There should be a second value, something like ‘external hosts only’, which should cause the system to behave like R5 without the .ini variable.
Failing that, try reading the documentation or perhaps take a look at the Redpiece on anti-spam.

Sad to say…But it looks like impossible to return the R5 way :(((
IMO, its a bug
