Thanks Tonni - smtp server is on the same server, as is qmail / php /
apache / mysql and SM.

The original problem is that the "Compose" and subsequent "Send" of an
email when testing my servers SM install on the internal IP works okay.

But when testing the internet facing address through our firewall the
"Send" function appears to fail, the right hand part of the screen does
not appear BUT you do get the email.

The Apache log should be displaying this "GET
/src/right_main.php?mailbox=INBOX&sort=6&startMessage= HTTP/1.1"

Thanks - Julian.

Unless your smtp server is on the outside of your firewall, the firewall
should make no difference at all, as long as the SM port is open (80 -
ugh - or 443).

I can't recall your original post as to how your site is set up, but at
my own site, SM, Courier IMAP and Postfix are all on the same server. Of
course there's a firewall with strict rules between the Internet and it
and port forwarding to the server in the DMZ, as well as a firewall
between the DMZ and the internal LANs, but the only traffic from SM
through the firewall(s) is over port 443.

You'd have to have an smtp server on another internal machine to be
having firewall trouble on the internal side of things, and be blocking
port 25 or 587 (submission, which we use) to be having smtp problems.
