 Actually, to be picky, the SMTP isn't. The mail is being created by www
user on localhost.

 Yes, it is forbidden. I don't relay any mail except mail generated by
the machine or mail going to an allowed recipient.

 All I'm saying is that IMP behaves differently than Yahoo!, Hotmail,
GMail, etc.. It would be nice, as the admin of the box, to be able to
configure it the same way as these services. It's kinda crazy that I can
add the 'X-Originating-IP' header by simply removing a comment in
headers.txt, but I can't configure IMP to not add the first one. What is
the point of having both?

Cheers,
