 I admit, the way it was phrased did make Rob's reply sound like you were
an open relay :) However, Rob's snippet below:

 I think he meant, I may be wrong, that you didn't give an example of how
NOT to use helo checks under recipient restrictions in a way that would
make the system an open relay. I don't know if that sounds any clearer :)

 But, seeing as you use the same method as I, and put restrictions under
their respective classes, it would be somewhat irrelevant to your specific
howto.

All the best,
