If in Wingate, under the properties of the SMTP Proxy, you set the default
mapping to the name of a smart host at your ISP, it'll proxy your outbound
connection (to it's internal IP#) to your smart host and you can dump your
email there to have it sent. Otherwise you have to install the Wingate
Client (assuming you're using Wingate 3?) on the IMAIL server and have it
effectively use socks to send outgoing messages directly.

Subject: [IMail Forum] Imail server behind Proxy server
I am trying to figure out the best way to put my email server behind my
Wingate proxy server. The Wingate server has two NICs, one with a valid IP
for external connections and other being 192.168.0.1 for internal. I want
to use 192.168.0.4 as the IP for my Imail server. I can do the mappings in
Wingate so I can receive email but I haven't had any luck in getting email
out of the network - I'm still working on this with Wingate but I haven't
got a real positive response from them as of yet.
Does anyone have any experience with putting Imail behind a proxy server?
If so, what are the issues I need to be looking at? If I can't make Wingate
work, what else can I do?
Your help is greatly appreciated.
Gary
