G'day,

is there a FAQ/Document on setting up mail distribution on a firewall?

The situation is the following:

Currently, the firewall in use is Borderware which is nolonger
supported and will be replaced by NetBSD. There are geographically
seperated user groups for which email will arrive at the firewall.

External users are listed in the /etc/alias list of the firewall and
their email is redirected to the appropriate accounts. For all other
users, email is redirected to the internal mailserver, Groupwise 5.2.

The aim is to redirect email for external users at the firewall and
not from the internal mailserver. 


  user-ext@domain1|
                  |--- internet ---> [fw.domain1] ---+
  user-int@domain1|                      |           | 
                                         |           |
					 |           |
  user-ext@domain2 <-- internet ---------+           |
						     |
                                                     v
                                              [mail.domain1]


Is anyone using a similar setup? Suggestions? Pointers?

Many thanks in advance...

cheerio Berndt
