MSN Explorer

onebigm16
I just implemented Astaro internet gateway and i love it. but i have a question.

My parents use MSN explorer for there email(dont ask). The gateway is causing them not being able to use email at all no sending or receiving.. is there a way to work around this is there a setting i need to change in msn explorer or in gateway? Anyone have a idea.

    It's hard to tell what may be wrong as you have not provided any details as to what exactly you have configured on the astaro. It would be useful if you could let us know what you have configured for your packet filter, nat rules and proxies.

    i would first suggest disabling the pop3 proxy and check to see if your mail is working without it. To do this make sure you have created a NAT masquerade rule in Network Security -> NAT.
    ex NAT masq:
    Network: Internal (network)
    Interface: External

    Next, create a packet filter rule in Network Security -> Packet Filter to allow traffic intiated from the internal network out.

    ex: 
    Source: Internal (network)
    Service: ANY
    Destination: ANY
    Action: Allow

    Test to see if your email is working. If it is then I would then suggest enabling the pop3 proxy and checking to see if the email is still working.

    The Nat rule is incorrect, the interface should be the external not the internal interface (I am assuming you have more than one interface configured on the astaro and it is not in bridge mode).

    Ok so should I have two entries in NAT.

    NAT (Masquerading):

    Network:Internal(network)
    Interface:Internal

    Network:Internet(WAN)(network)
    Interface:Internet(WAN)

    What should be in Nat Masquerading

    Thank you all so much Dilandau you get the prize....

    It was the NAT issue I didn't understand what you said at first that's why I posted last. 

    OK now for those who are haveing same issue as me if there is any or just for future reference 

    Issue was resolved by editing NAT (Masquerading) to this value.
