1. eth0 should be your local network connection 2. On connected computers, dhcp protocol should be set "Get an address automatically" Under Network Neighborhood>>TCP/IP>Properties>IP Address 3. On connected computers the gateway _must_ be set to 192.168.0.1 4. eth1 should be connnected to the internet by whatever means you use as standard unless you use a modem. Default gateway device should be eth1 or ppp0 as appropriate. Now nexbie mail might be rejected if the subscriber's email is not correct, but usually with a confirmation message allowing non-subscribers to post anyway. Your rejection is quite odd. While we have had other users request information on rejecting Outlook from their servers entirely because the viruses like SirCam are eating up too much space and bandwidth, I don't think we have implemented our own advice on our servers.
