According to RM it seams that we need to set up a reverse look-up on the squid box so that the mailgate is contactable from outside (as it is now) and they will make adjustments in their DNS, That's as much as I can get out of them. maybe because they sell a similar system>
OK, from what I understand now, you need to either configure whatever firewall software is on SuSE to forward connections to certain ports on one of the public IP addresses to the mail server (in shorewall and some other systems, this is "Static NAT"), *or* you can run nportredir, rinetd or uinetd on the squid box to do the same job. Hopefully, the terms in the above paragraph (port redirection, Static NAT and so on) should give you enough to find something useful. [...]
Agreed, but if we fiddle too much RM will not support the system, which is understandable.
