    Hold on here. First - reply to the list. I am too kind, I reply back and
    copy the list. Don't expect this behaviour.

    - If lots of people want to send you mail from outside to users on your
      server, this is a normal setup and there is nothing difficult.
    - If you need your users to send mail via your server to somewhere else
      (relaying) then of course you will need a solution like
       POP-before-SMTP. This is usually in a "roaming" situation where you
       have road warriors (employees that move around and connect to the
       Internet via dialup to other providers, etc).
    - If you want to only accept email from specific domains, and forget all
      other mail, then you need sender_restrictions.
