[FW1] Blackboard Server

[Debra James <DJames@FW1-NOSPAMrbc.edu>]

We have recently, (and reluctantly) deployed a Blackboard server.  This
server resides on our DMZ, but must use our Mail server as relay.  We run an
NT box with Exchange 5.5 configured to allow relay from the Blackboard
Server.  The Firewall rule base is:

Rule #	Source			Destination		Service
Action
5	Any			MailServer-valid		smtp-ESAFE
Accept
6	MailServer-valid		Any			smtp-ESAFE
Accept

When we attempt to send an email from the Blackboard Server off campus,
traffic drops at rule #5 :  550 relaying is prohibited.

I am very, VERY new at FW and I know I have missed a step.  Any advice would
be greatly appreciated.

Thank you
