Re: [FW-1] SMTP connection



PTR records are fine...

It literally takes like 5mins. To get a connection prompt via 'telnet
193.194.138.75 25'

When I try this from a host outside the firewall, the connection is instant.

have a look at PTR records from the machine you are connecting from as some
mail servers also want to be able to do a reverse lookup.
