Uh no !

let's refer to http://i47.tinypic.com/oi574w.jpg (I created it by
loading
the original scheme I sent to Fritz time ago and "tailoring" it for this
particular case :D)

Now, let's say the public IP is 123.45.67.89 and that's the IP on which
ASSP is listening (on port 25 btw)

The posfix server is instead listening on 10.100.100.11:25 and is
configured so that the local domains emails will be forwarded to
192.168.1.1:25 which is the Exchange server sitting on the LAN

so, incoming email will hit 123.45.67.89:25 where ASSP is listening,
ASSP will check incoming emails destination addresses (either using
LDAP or VRFY/RCPT) against 192.168.1.1 and will proxy (smtpdest)
such emails  to 10.100.100.11.:25 where postfix is listening

Good incoming emails will then be received by postfix which, due to
config will route them to 192.168.1.1:25 that is the LAN Exchange srv

Outgoing emails from LAN will be sent by users to the exchange srv
the latter will then send them to 10.100.100.10:25 that is, the ASSP
relayport

ASSP will proxy such connections to 10.100.100.11:25 (posfix again)
which will then proceed routing the emails toward the destination MX

need more :) ?
