Hi people, Now I'm installing the Courier 0.48 in my Fedora OS, and because I need Authenticated SMTP, I just want to know if I have to open the ESMTP tcp port in my firewall or just the SMTP tcp/25 port in order to authenticate the outgoing messages ??? Because I read some topics related to ESMTP.....and I don't now why exactly.
Thanks, you are really helping me !!!
