It appears you are in the best spot you can be, you get to plan where your
infrastructure lies.  It seems from the information that you have provided
that the DMZ may be the best place for your mail server, and the reason is
you can keep your publicly available mail server separated from your
corporate LAN which in my opinion is the best way to go if you get to plan
it out.  

You may also want to consider taking up some of the suggestions of the mail
veterans that are here in the forum by going back and doing some searches on
the archives on initial configurations and implementations.  Also you should
consider if your new mail server will use port 25 or another port, you may
also want to consider your mail servers name... Mail.company.com or
somename.company.com 

Hope this helps
Adam

Subject: [IMail Forum] Imail and Watchguard


Is someone out there using Watchguard?
What kind of considerations do I need to take when I put in place a new
server?  
Sometimes Watchguard can be picky or just different from other firewalls.
As far as 
webmail goes, does it make a difference to put the server in the DMZ or
behind the 
trusted interface?

We'll be installing a new Imail server on a new piece of hardware pretty
soon and I'm 
trying to draw my plan of attack to move my existing email users to the new
server.  

Thank you,

Elliott
