Hi All,

I am new at this and would appreciate some 
direction.  The following 
was detected by my IDS sensor.  The "email_turn" 
event was recorded but 
the source was the smtp server in my dmz and the 
destination address was 
an internal smtp server.   A few questions:

1. What exactly is an Email_turn event?

2. What danger, if any,  does this feature (smtp turn, 
I'm guessing) 
present on my internal smtp server 

3.  What do I lose by not allowing it. It is MS 
Exchange 5.5.

Thanks in advance.

\d
