I have a server behind a router with does NAT , the intern IP for the
machine is 192.168.168.145, and people from outside sees it as
200.27.50.XX. the machine does not have a direct link to the internet,
the only way is through the router.
I have installed and configured qmail and it works _only_ if I
connect locally to the server (ie telnet localhost 25), otherwise
I have to wait between 1:30 and 2 minutes for the welcome message to appear,
and then it doesn't get the rules that i set in tcp.smtp and i can deliver
locally only.
This means that the other people in the internal network can't send
any mail!!! (they must wait over a minute, and most MUA's have shorter
timeouts) and even if they wait, they can only deliver local mail...
The weird thing (to me) is that telnet localhost works perfectly...
I've tried everything I can, and I just can't get it working right
(i've played with almost every possible combination of tcp.smtp.cdb,
etc.)
Thanks,
