I just found it simpler to restrict outbound smtp traffic to the exchange server at the firewall (which should be done anyway) and send directly from exchange. That way if your Barracuda dies you can at least still send outbound mail and you don't have a single point of failure both ways. I guess that's not really an issue any more since I migrated to their virtual appliance.

The barracuda is the defacto mail server on the outside connection wise and resolves to the right DNS, I checked blacklists and RBL's and we aren't showing on any of them. Seems the Cuda's and Symantec's don't want to currently chat From: N Parr [mailto:npar...@mortonind.com] Sent: Thursday, May 26, 2011 10:16 AM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: RE: Barracuda SPAM filters to Symantec Failures Just to be clear you are doing outbound spam filtering and all your outbound email is being delivered by your Barracuda? If so have you tried sending direct from your mail server and not out through the Barracuda? ________________________________ From: Garcia-Moran, Carlos [mailto:cgarciamo...@spragueenergy.com] Sent: Thursday, May 26, 2011 9:13 AM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: Barracuda SPAM filters to Symantec Failures Hey All; Anyone have Barracuda SPAM appliances or Symantec Ones? We are having an issue that started 2-3 days ago where any Symantec Appliance drops our mail connection. We are talking with both vendors and other companies we send mail to, just curious if anyone has seen this in their areas Thx!
