FYI:

For EFW 2.1.2


I've disabled the port forwarding rule for smtp and created by hand a
SNAT iptables rule forcing to be the first one in the POSTROUTING chain
(yes dest. port redundant )

iptables -t nat -I POSTROUTING -s internal_mailserver_ip -p tcp --dport
25 -j SNAT --to public_mailserver_ip:25


iptables -t nat -L --line-number | more

Chain POSTROUTING (policy ACCEPT)
num  target     prot opt source               destination
1    SNAT       tcp  --  internal_mailserver_ip              anywhere
tcp dpt:smtp to:public_mailserver_ip:25
2    CUSTOMPOSTROUTING  all  --  anywhere             anywhere
3    REVERSENAT  all  --  anywhere             anywhere
4    REDNAT     all  --  anywhere             anywhere 
5    POSTPORTFW  all  --  anywhere             anywhere


Enabled smtp proxy for incoming mail, not checked transparent on zone.

With this change all incoming connections to port 25 for
public_mailserver_ip goes to the smtp proxy,being checked for virus/spam
and resended to internal_mailserver_ip, but the outgoing mail from
internal_mailserver_ip bypasses EFW standard nats, and is presented to
other mailservers with the public ip registered in dns.

To avoid client connections to be processed by smtp proxy I've created a
port forwarding rule with external port 26 forwarded to
internal_mailserver:25, and tolk with customers to change their mail
client config to point to public_mailserver:26


I've activated the antispam lists 'cause we were having more than 250
spam mails/minute (!)


Thanks to all who responded to my questions before, now it's running
very well


Best regards

D.
