There is no serous problem with our configuration. We purposely limited the
number of e-mail that could come in simaltaioniously from the same address
because we were going through a period where we were being dictionary
attacked on a ongoing basis. I have loosened up the configuration so you
should not have this problem any more. Thanks for your quick response.

Hello Chris, how many Gilanet customers were sending mail to a one time? We
do set up some limits due to the fact that we get dictionary attacked. Also
when didi you send the message? Thanks, Gilanet Network Operations

dear gilanet,
fyi, smtpout.mac.com [17.250.248.88] is very unlikely to ever be
a source or carrier of 'spam'.  may your software be well and happy.
