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
