Hi all... My father-in-law has an account through MSN. They block all outgoing port 25 connections on their network. This means he can''t send email through his domain hosted on my server. I had him configured to use authentication and MSN''s outbound server. Worked great until they converted his email to web only. He can''t use outlook to send mail through their server anymore. What I want to do is have his Outlook Express connect to my smtp server on port 8025. I already verified I can at least telnet out on that port and hit my server (saw the DROP in my shorewall logs). I don''t really want to run another copy of qmail in memory just for him. What I''d like to do is port forward the incoming port 8025 connection to port 25. I thought a rule like this would do it but no dice. ACCEPT net fw::25 tcp 8025 Anyone have a suggestion on how I might go about this? Or do I just need to run another SMTP instance on my server? Oh ya ... I''m running shorewall 1.3.2 Thank you, Charlie
