     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,

    Matt
