I just installed an Ubuntu Dapper box with postfix as the MTA and I'm 
having a problem with receipt of mail. I'm serving as an email server 
for a number of client (windows) machines. Right now my clients can send 
out mail but only mail coming from one of the addresses in mynetworks is 
accepted. I want email to be accepted from anywhere but of course only 
relay for machines in my network. I realize the my networks as it stands 
right now is redundant with the first entry covering most of the rest. I 
would prefer not to have the first entry and further tighten the relay 
machines with the others. I have read lots of stuff on the web but can't 
figure this out. The parts of my main.cf that I think are appropriate 
here are given below. Thanks for any help anyone can give me.

reject_unauth_destination
