I know that it does work for the ftp http. So, theoretically it should for port 25 as well unless something really strange is going on. I can send client to client behind the firewall all day long without a hitch. I can send to clients on the internet without a problem. However, clients on the internet can't send back to the clients behind the firewall. No client on the internet has a qmail account on the server at this point should not. This is the error that a friend on the internet is getting when attempting to send me email. 554 [EMAIL PROTECTED] Recipient address rejected: Relay access denied. This error doesn't come from qmail. Your qmail server is never seeing the connection, so it's no wonder nothing is in the logs. The MX records for abcdefg.com show the following: 0 glcsf.hookedonphonics.com 10 mailback.brainstorm.net 20 mail.brainstorm.net There's no IP address associated with glcsf.hookedonphonics.com, and Sendmail answers on the other MXs.
