    there are 2 ways of getting rid of this problem

    a) no fix smtp 25 (disabling mailguard on pix)

    b) mapping port other than 25 to port 25 of the Mail Server for example

    static(inside,outside) externalip portnumber(51000) internal/lan
    ipaddress 25 255.255.255.255 0 0

    Remote email clients will connect to port 26.

    I haven't tried the option b but may work.

    The other option is port submission (587) . Will the email clients
    need to connect to the port 587(LAN and Remote email clients) or they
    will continue using port 25.

    Thanks & Regards
