The firewall is set OK - I can watch the logs and it shows the IP address of
the sender's machine but after it gets to Declude's hiJack, it shows as the
outgoing IP 127.0.0.1.

any host policy should whitelist 127/8 anyway, so that's not a "workaround".
you just don't have the answer to why you have to start doing it now.


the above host policy must be complemented by your edge firewall's network
policy, in pseudo-code:

block in any from < net 127/8, net 192.168/16, net 10/8, net 172.16/12 > to
<my nets> tcp/udp

this forces RFC 1918 networks to be "unroute-able" in bound at your network
edge.
