Yesterday I put my BSD/Postfix smtp/MX mail server behind a sonic
wall/firewall. Everthing is working except I'm getting flooded with these
false positives about one every 10 minutes from my Imail server.



10/14/2002 13:36:12.704 -       Probable TCP FIN scan -         Source:63.237.136.92,
(IMAIL IP )25, WAN -    Destination:209.113.151.9 (Postfix box BEHIND the
firewall), 51041, LAN -

What kind of activity on the Imail box is creating a false positive. Does it
have to do with webmesenger scanning for a free port ?
