But if it's "only" NAT w/o port redirection, then Imail can't see behind
outside/public ip of NAT box to reach the inside/private ip of Exchange.
(I'm not belaboring this point to you, but to lurkers who might not be up
to crusing speed on NAT, etc)

ok, this "additional" NAT configuration item of port redirection is needed,
we do this, too.
Sheldon, if you can manage Dan's port redirection trick, then you can drop
the Exchange ETRN and Imail relay rigamorole and keep their SMTP traffic
out of Imail completely. Their Exchange would be able to play directly on
Internet like a big boy.
But a fixed ip at their end of the DSL line for the NAT box's outside i/f
is still required.
