I only run one email server, IMail v8.01, but I have McAffee Webshield email virus scanner running on the same server, and you're right, in incoming mail, the message first goes through the McAffee Webshield (port 25), then it gets passed onto to Imail (port 1025) and then it gets passed on to the user eventually.
When a user sends an email out, the message hits Imail and then leaves our network bypassing McAffee Webshield.
So, now that you know all this, does it look normal to you? Geza

I have v8.01 installed on a W2k server, and here is a copy from the log file. I don't recognize any of the ports on the IPswitch support document.
What do you think?
Those are the ports on the client side (you don't have to worry about them):
SMTPD (0056016A) [192.168.0.202] connect 192.168.0.202 port 3382
This is a bit odd, because it's your own mailserver talking to itself. But the 3382 is the client-side port, with the server-side port normally being 25 (but probably not in this case, because it looks like you have 2 mailservers running on the same machine).
Every Internet connect is identified by 4 pieces of information: The IP of the client, the port on the client, the IP of the server, and the port on the server. The port on the client will be different on each connection (usually it starts at 1024 and goes up by 1 for each connection).
