How then, did you route traffic to your server if yor DNS is pointing to your firewall?? Did you map your gateway address to your server?? That would cause me great security concerns.

I think I had a similar issue. No matter what I did the sender could not see his own typing. And the error in the logs was that the message could not be sent back to the public IP of that sender - which it shouldn't anyway. I had to finally give up on using the IMAIL mail server database. So I changed to Instant IM Server database. Then I made a new DNS entry im.example.com for the MAIN public ip of my firewall/NAT router and put that in the box NAT Gateway Host. So then IM users have to connect via [EMAIL PROTECTED] - and I have to set them up manually. But now everyone can talk to each other and the sender can see what he types and the recipient can see what he types. But setting it this way is a real pita.
