Hello compdoc

lan_A is 192.168.178.0/24 
lan_B is 190.100.3.0/24 

Both lans are behind nat even if lan_b is not class C, we speak here from local 
networks without public ips (no DMZ).
I use SMTP Proxy to catch spam and viruses and to forward emails after health 
treatment to mail MS Exchange Server, where they are distributed via Outlook 
and OWA users in both cities.
So without SMTP Proxy I would put my AD Master Server in Internet with the 
public IP to catch emails, instead of Endian SMTP Proxy. This solution is for 
my high risky, that's way I put linux gateway on Endian with SMTP Proxy between 
my MSExch and Internet. I do this for 5 years, and always it was very safe, 
stable and cheap solution.

The main question is, how I can forward email from LAN via VPN to another LAN. 
I've read somewhere that after processing the email through endian, it could be 
send only to some lan ip address.

When you say routed mode in your vpn, are you using the same ip address ranges 
in your two lans, or do they have different ranges? 
 
I guess my understanding of the smtp proxy is wrong. I thought it captured all 
smtp traffic going out in order to pass it thru the AV, etc. In your setup, I 
would disable the smtp proxy completely. But again, maybe my understanding of 
what the efw smtp proxy is capable of isn't complete...

Subject: [Efw-user] SMTP Proxy Connection refused
 
Hello,
I am using two Endians 2.1.2 in two cities (let's give them name A and B), both 
location are connected via OpenVPN Net-to-Net. And there is one MS Exchange 
2003 as a backend server in city B. The are two different networks, VPN is in 
routed mode (not in bridged) so the endians are responsible for routing between 
both LANs My problem applies to SMTP Forwarding via VPN. (SMTP Proxy + Exchange 
= Conection refused) In City A, Endian_A (it is the mx0 ) take incoming email 
traffic and forward direct to MS_Exch2k3_B in city B.
In City B, Endian_B (it is the mx1 ) the Endian_B should take care about email 
forwarding to MS_Exch2k3_B, only in case when the mx0 in city A is offline. (It 
works) I've set at Endian_A (Proxy->SMTP->Domains) for my domain a local ip 
from MS_Exch2k3_B, important fact is that, Endian_A and MS_Exch_2k3_B are in 
different LANs. With the same setting on Endian_B works everything fine, but 
only in case when Endian_A is offline (the sequence of mx entries by domain 
provider is so defined, and change of this settings can not be treat as a 
solution) On the MS_Exch_2k3_B (Exchange->Global Settings-> Message Deliver 
->General) I've added extra entry for Endian_A.
In logs at Endian_A is following :
postfix/smtp[3908]: 846A922DD2F: to=, relay=none, delay=0, status=deferred 
(connect to MS_Exch2k3_B(ip) :Connection
refused)postfix/smtp[3908]: connect to MS_Exch2k3_B(ip) :
Connection refused (port 25)
On MS_Exch2k3_B is nothing to find in logs.
Could someone write me why it doesn't work, and how to solve this problem?
Thanks in advance
Best regards
Rafal Sladek
