Hi all,

'uname -a' says: FreeBSD 3.4-RELEASE

I would like to send and receive mail through our firewall, but the canned 
rule for this doesn't seem to work. I have the following in place:

# Allow setup of incoming email
$fwcmd add pass tcp from any to ${oip} 25 setup

We have a separate mail server, behind the NAT router, that handles the 
mail. But, no one on the outside of our LAN is able to send email to our 
mail server. And, we aren't able to send mail out to anyone other than the 
people on our LAN.

'more /etc/db.ourdomain.com' says the following:

;MX records
@       IN    MX    10    mail.ourdomain.com.

;hosts
mail    IN    A           192.x.x.x

Apparently there is something I'm missing. Any help would be appreciated 
greatly.

TIA
Ron Smith
