I've been trying to get this to work, and spent two hours on the phone with SonicWall (TZ170 Enhanced OS). They claim that there's no way to do it. Here's the problem:

Normal connection comes in on WAN port 25 and is redirected to LAN on port 25, then Imail replies on port 25 and everything works fine.

From blocking ISP connection comes in on WAN port 587 and is redirected to
LAN on port 25. Now the problem comes in... Imail replies on port 25, but reply never makes it back to original connection because they are listening on 587. If you create the outbound rule to redirect the outbound port 25 to port 587 then you do the same for ALL port 25 connections... the result is the "normal" connections would come in on port 25 and go out on 587.

Result, according to SonicWall is that it can't be done. If you create an inbound rule to redirect port 587 to port 25 you must then create an outbound rule to redirect port 25 to 587. This breaks most all normal SMTP connections.

Any ideas other than a software redirect that may have security problems?

Thanks,
Joe

Create service SMTPAUTH for port 587 remote port 25 local

RULE:

ALLOW - SMTPAUTH - WAN, all - LAN(DMZ) Imailserveripaddress
