I used Ops Nav to configure it just in case there was something that I had
missed on the green screen config.  What is it about the domain jims.com
that lets it relay?  The ALWRLY parameter is set to *NONE which matches Ops
Nav setting "Block all relay messages."

I was hoping to bind to 127.0.0.1 only, but it won't let me.

Is there anything else I can try?  The "Reject connections from" works, but
I would have to add a lot of entries to leave just 127.0.0.1 as allowed.
(It drops packets and won't even send the SMTP banner!  Very nice.)
