Right, but earlier you said: Relayhost:none (for now) I think you've made this way too complicated for yourself. 1. Get rid of your 2nd nic and setup the first one with your internal IP. 2. Un-router your debian box. 3. Set your default gateways to your PIX. Use your PIX as the router/firewall (it is a firewall correct?). 4. Create a rule on your PIX to forward all incoming SMTP traffic to port 25 on your ASSP/Debian box (listenport). 5. Point ASSP to your GW server from there (SMTP Destination). 6. Tell your GW server to send traffic out to your ASSP box on port 125 (Relayport). 7. Configure ASSP with this port 125 Relayport. Configure ASSP's Relayhost to the 2nd SMTP server on your Debian server (meaning that the 2nd smtp server would only be listening on port 125, not 25 because ASSP is listening on that). 8. Configure the SMTP server with a route that sends "internal" emails (from ASSP) back to your GW server (this is how you get your email interface to work correctly) and everything else out to your ISP's relay (smtp.isp.com). That is it pretty much spelled out.
