Hi all, Few months ago I asked this list if using SA on outgoing smtp was a good idea (Thread: SA on outgoing SMTP). This thread quickly moved to "Block direct port 25 for non-mta users! I was really afraid of doing so and didn't really wanted to go this way. now about 6 months later I have to say: I was a fool! Today. After spending some time trying to find a more user-friendly way to clean up the mess around here, I came to the conclusion that port 25 blocking on the bound of my network was inevitable. Today it's done, and I have followed few others advices given on list. I wanted to testify the benfits of good designed network for thoose who like me are afrais of annying customer with security (even more blocking port 25 on the limits of the network is not really annoying for most of customers). Thanks to Ted Mittelstaedt, Matus UHLAR, Martin Gregorie, with your help dudes, all I have to care about now is my mailservers configuration!
