The OP's rule applies to incoming SMTP connections forwarded to the server, in order to workaround the routing flaw (wrong gateway). Your rule applies to outgoing connexions from the server, so 1) is useless for incoming connections That's my point, i misread his rule and thought it was the one I posted. and 2) would be ignored in the original setup because the server did not use the router as its default gateway. Yep, but not if the source ip was being changed to the one of the router in which case the reply would not go to the dgw. PS. Igor, the plain text version of your posts does not properly mark the quoted text from the message you reply to : it appears as if it was your text, without any quotation marks.
