Hi,
    I am setting up a new server (RedHat 7 - more here know it) and a
firewall (OpenBSD 2.8 - my prerogative) for our network. I am going to
use postfix as our mail server with Courier as a I-MAP server. I was
thinking that I might be able to just map port 25 on the firewall to the
internal server using NAT. Is this a good idea? Would it even work?

The other option is to install postfix on the firewall as well but I
thought that it might be cleaner just to have it on the one machine.

Please advise.

Chris
