I am a little confused about the 'Relay Host' parameter. What exactly does ASSP do with this switch as far as its behavior is concerned?
I was using ASSP with very good success in front of an Exchange server which uses an ISP that requires a smarthost (port 25 outbound blocked). In that config it correctly proxy's my isp's smarthost for my exchange server. Now I must configure another setup which doesn't use a smarthost (in that sense), so the Linux server that is running ASSP will have Postfix on it to route external mail. Looking at the flow diagrams, I believe to leverage all of ASSP's features, I will need the following: Client -> Exchange -> ASSP -> Postfix -> internet And Internet -> ASSP -> Postfix -> Exchange *or* Internet -> ASSP -> Exchange Postfix is listening on 10025, when I telnet to x.x.x.x:10025 I see the Postfix banner and when I telnet to x.x.x.x:25 I also see it (I recon this is correct). I have the following configured: Network Setup -> SMTP Listen Port -> 25 Network Setup -> SMTP Destination -> 127.0.0.1:10025 If I understand correctly, incoming mail will See ASSP and transfer to Postfix here which will route to my exchange server. Relaying -> Relay Port -> 225 Exchange will connect here, and I will need ASSP to proxy back to Postfix. I guess I need Relaying -> Relay Host -> 127.0.0.1:10025 If that's correct, am I also correct in guessing that whitelisting etc is performed based on the mail coming in through "Relay Port" and this is how it makes the distinction, versus ASSP handling mail in and out through one port?
