In a couple of weeks I'm going to be putting a new firewall box online complete with SMTP server, as soon as I get the time. The box is completed and all I need to do is install the SMTP service and give it a trial run. Anyone know of a good way to test this box to see if it's setup correctly? Like maybe a group that can hammer it and see if I left any holes in the protection? I think I got tripwire and the ip filtering and all that setup right, but I'm not totally deathly sure. Anyone got any ideas? I don't want to leave the SMTP server vulnerable to spammers either. So I'm totally game to any ideas you guys have. I'm using FreeBSD 4.3 stable as my platform.
