Do you have a static address? If so you may want to add a reverse lookup record. Many ISPs won't accept mail from dynamic addresses or reverse IP as a way of filtering potential spam.

Hi All,

I have realized that e-mail is not being sent out from a box I put behind my 
pfsense box on LAN.

I have port 25 open on the WAN and I think there is a default LAN out rule in 
pfsense by default.

So I would think the traffic would be going out automatically?

I have 25 open on WAN, but sending to a GMail address and they could also let 
me use 465 and 587, so do I need those open on the WAN as well? I thought that 
statefull inspection would apply?

E-Mail on this box worked before I put it behind the firewall.
If your LAN rules allow 25 out, but it's not getting there, it could be
that your ISP is filtering 25. This is common on non-business circuits.

Using the submission port (587) is recommended in place of 25 for
anything that is not actually a mail server accepting inbound mail.
