We have setup an Exchange Front end mail server in off of the optional port of our firewall, along with some other monitoring/logging devices for internet access.  Any of these devices do not have an external IP address.  Any mail that comes into our domain goes through the front end mail server, where spam filtering and anti-virus occurs, it then will pass any good email to our normal mail server, where virus checking occurs once again, by a different product.  All mail related ports go through the front end mail server first.  This setup works quite well for us w/ no problems and was quite easy to setup

I may be a little late – but – may I ask why you are putting an Exchange server out in your DMZ?

I've been asked to open ports:

 

tcp 135

tcp/udp 389

tcp/udp 88

tcp 3268

tcp 691

 

So we can have an exchange front end server on our DMZ talk to exchange backend server on our internal network.  Has anyone done this and what's the security implications of this?
