[iMS] smart delivery + firewall issues

[Mark Woods]

our mail server is sitting behind a firewall which is managed by somebody else. All I know is it's checkpoint, that it.

Due to the network/firewall setup, the mail server cannot connect to itself via it's public IP address. When the POST server tries to send a message from a local to a local address, it doesn't find the IP address of the primary MX record for the recipient domain in it's list of local IP addresses, and then tries to send the message using SMTP and gets a connection failure.

Is there some way I can set/append to the list of IP addresses which the POST server thinks are local addresses, and in doing so force smart delivery where the destination server is the public IP of our mail server?
