Hi Ian

Thanks for the reply,

Unfortunatly this machine is behind another firewall as well as a NAT
device in front of that firewall, so I would have to forward a lot of
ports on both devices (to make it worse neither device has the ability
to forward multiple ports from one rule). Also we only have Outlook 2003
installed here so support for older clients isn't required
