How do I do this? Our mail server is now behind a firewall but it has internal IP address. I want to make the mail server RFC compliant but I want to understand why the problem occurs and what I need to do to sort it. I assume it something to do with a DNS entry of some sort. All replies appreciated. Thank you.
