I have a problem with incoming SMTP traffic as it reaches the firewall and doesn't get past it. I had a look on the firewall and there seems to be no reason why it can't be denied. This was working fine until yesterday. Could there be a way to set a filter and how is it done ?
Thanks
are you sure it is the netopia? have you tried telneting to port 25 on yer internal ip of the mailserver?. yes you can setup filters like that in a netopia, but they just dont appear.. restart the netopia and the server also and see what happens..
I am positive its the firewall as Message labs tried to telnet to port
25 and the connection was refused. I had already restarted the server and firewall but nothing happened. I had a look at the filters and I know to set it up for incoming on port 25 and i know that sdestination address but i dont know what to put for the source address. Would you know ?
from what i remeber, the source in the netopia should either be the wan ip that the connections are coming in on, or possibly '0.0.0.0'. I think
0.0.0.0 is a wildcard for netopia.. meaning anything coming in from any ip on port 25 make it go to SeverIP.. kHave something to add? Share your thoughts — no account required.
