our isp has blocked port 25, therefore , we are using
port 26, i have modified postfix ( postfix just for
cron messages only , our office mail server is hosted
off-site ) and also the smtp macro to this end.

in the policy file , i have set FW -> Net as accept,
since postfix is running on the FW , this should cut
it rite ?

i hv read it before... nothing clicked.... but
....reading it again.... == > i get it now ! :)

If in the policy file , i already have FW -> net ,
there is no need for me to add something in rules..
therefore  should i conclude , its my postfix config
which is wrong ?

marco
