Remember that NAT is not something that most IP-aware applications can deal with easily (cf.

Why can't IpSwitch just fix imail to accept [0.0.0.0] as an alias for said domain. </P>Tue, 17 Aug 2004 08:55:05 GMTwilliam.stillwellhttp://forums.ipswitch.com/Topic697-10-1.aspx<P>You have to bind the public NAT address as a secondary address on the NIC.</P><P>Yes, it sounds kludgy, but it works. At the network level, your mailserver should never need to route to its own public NAT address through the firewall, so the fact that you're "short-circuiting" the route by steering it to localhost should be okay. </P><P>--Sandy </P>Wed, 11 Aug 2004 00:47:29 GMTSanford Whitemanhttp://forums.ipswitch.com/Topic697-10-1.aspx<P>I have 15 Domains behind a Firewall, All Domains on the Imail server are using "Private" IP's which have a 1:1 Nat to a Public IP, However none of the domains will except domain literals, I even tried adding [xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx] and/or xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx as an alias for the given domain, and still does not except a ip literal from outside the net, however will except if i use the PrivateIP as the literal for the said domain. </P><P> </P><P>Any Ideas?</P><P> </P>Tue, 10 Aug 2004 13:18:41 GMTwilliam.stillwell
