On your gateway, it is always a good thing to ban incoming traffic from and to 0.0.0.0 from and to Private ips (10.0.0.0, 192.168.0.0, 172.16. ...)
From your own Ips
To  any ip that is not yours

on the ougoing, you need to ban
from and to 0.0.0.0
from and to Private ips (10.0.0.0, 192.168.0.0, 172.16. ...)
To your own Ips
From any ip that is not yours

Regarding the [0.0.0.0] in imail log, it is not about spoofing it was discussued on this list look at the archive, and the ipswitch knowledge base http://jabba.ipswitch.com/query.html?template=kb&qc=kb+wsftpug+imlguide+wugguide+ftpsrvug+iimguide&col=kb+wsftpug+imlguide+wugguide+ftpsrvug+iimguide&ws=0&qm=0&st=1&nh=10&lk=1&rf=0&oq=&rq=0&qs=&rq=0&qp=&qt=%5B0.0.0.0%5D&qt2=+%7C+imail&Submit=+search+

Subject: [IMail Forum] Mail Spoofing?



I'm seeing the following entries in my imail log:

09:05 13:02 SMTPD(54b901be00e843e8) [0.0.0.0] connect
206.114.180.92 port 58630

It looks like someone is trying to spoof ip 0.0.0.0?

Is that the correct interpretation of that entry?
Should I set my firewall to block all incoming traffic
on IP 0.0.0.0?  I have the private network ranges
blocked at the firewall but not 0.0.0.0
