Topic: Email Server Overwhelmed...please help

[kruhm]

wingman stated that the sme is in server-only mode. so obviously there's some type of firewall in front of it. we have no idea of the type or caliber of the firewall and we don't know if it's causing issues or blocking outgoing ports.

it was a suggestion to double-check everything.

You didn't suggest anywhere that he should be opening ports on an *external* firewall.

If you search this board, you will find that many, many people have been wasting time trying to open ports on the SME server unnecessarily.

i can see your concern

alone the comments may cause confusion. in the context of the post, they make sense.

i edited the comments for documentation purposes.

-sme server-only was stated
-assumed external firewall
