    Hi all,

    What kind of trouble can I get into by installing the SMTP service on a W2K
    server in a private DMZ (double hop DMZ)? It'll be used for a web app. Can
    it be used as a relay? Is there some way to secure it? The box is already
    hardened to live in a DMZ. Thanks for any info.
