Microsoft 2004 manual Create the Smtp Server Publishing Rules

Create the SMTP Server Publishing Rules

The SMTP Message Screener works together with SMTP Server Publishing Rules. Each SMTP Server Publishing Rule can be configured with a custom set of SMTP Message Screener parameters. This allows you to create different e-mail screening policies for the inbound and outbound SMTP relays. Different SMTP Message Screener configurations allow you to block different e-mail messages coming into the network versus what gets blocked on the way out.

Perform the following steps to create the Server Publishing Rule that listens on the external interface of the ISA Server 2004 firewall:

1.Open the Microsoft Internet Security and Acceleration Server 2004 management console and expand the server name in the left pane of the console. Click on the Firewall Policy node.

2.Right click the Firewall Policy node and point to New. Click Server Publishing Rule.

3.On the Welcome to the New Server Publishing Rule Wizard page, enter the name for the rule in the Server publishing rule name text box. In this example, we will name the rule Inbound SMTP Relay, as this rule will use the external interface of the ISA Server 2004 to accept incoming mail to be relayed. Click Next.

4.On the Select Server page, enter the IP address on the Internal interface of the ISA Server 2004 firewall that you want to publish. Enter 10.0.0.1, which is the primary IP address on the Internal interface of the ISA Server 2004 firewall machine. Click Next.

5.On the Select Protocol page, select the SMTP Server protocol from the Selected protocol list. Click Next.
