Note:For security purposes, you should only send mail from the Firewall when the administrator has a telnet session to the Firewall on port 25. Otherwise, the secure domain name of the firewall may be exposed to the world. The AIX mail facility will bypass the Firewall mail gateway when sent from the Firewall locally.
outside.company.com. 999999 IN A xxx.xxx.xxx.xxxwhere xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx is your non-secure interface address on the Firewall.
outside.company.com. 999999 IN A mmm.mmm.mmm.mmmwhere mmm.mmm.mmm.mmm is your internal mail server TCP/IP address.
domain.company.com. 999999 IN A xxx.xxx.xxx.xxxwhere xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx is the IP address of the non-secure interface on the Firewall.
domain.company.com. 999999 IN MX 0 fwallwhere fwall is the hostname of the non-secure interface on the Firewall. This hostname is the name defined in the data file on the external DNS as follows:
