Yes.

Yes, I set it up to receive SMTP directly, but I also have a backup mail
server with my ISP set to a higher MX value -- just in case the server is
down. Is this not a good idea?

> Why are you having these extra ports for IRC and HTTPS???

The outbound HTTPS seemed to be need for RealOne. I don't remember now why
the outbound IRC is there -- I can shut it off and see... Actually I can
shut both of these off for now.

> For the Time server you should check this for the packet filter because

Just curious, but how could you tell? Mine is named "SBS NTP 123 Out
CustomFilter" and I had set it according to
http://www.smallbizserver.net/Default.aspx?tabid=156, which I just verified;
UDP Send Receive, all local, 123 remote. So I am not sure what is wrong
with it.

Thanks,

David
