SPX encryption in legacy Mode?

DirkJung

I use the legacy Mode for smtp because I have an external smtp Server from ISP (smtp.1und1.de). I want to encrypt my emails in an easy way. Is there the possibility to use the Sophos spx encryption in legacy mode?

Or can I use the MTA Mode without an internal email Server?

 

Thanks for help

    Hi,

    If it is Exchange / Outlook, the e-mail sender's domain should be entered into the group authorized for SPX encryption.
    I have a slightly different situation, I have a mail server (GroupWise) in the local network and he sends emails, his IP is entered in the SPX group.
    To check how it works, see the XG email logs to see if there are Email subject records: ***** Non-requested subject.

    In addition - there should be a rule of firewall (Business Application Rule) LAN to WAN which scans outgoing mail (SMTP, SMTPS). Do you have one ?

    Hello Jan, please take a look at all config.

    Now i want to point out that email protection is not working at all:

    Rules are working and scaning but mail policies not. I just have reports for email but everything is allowed!

     

    It seems I cannot turn on email protection! XG in bridge mode just passing emails through.....any direction. :(

    PLEASE HELP!

    Any advice is high appreciated!

    Hi Kaloian,

    So far, I haven't had the opportunity to configure XG in bridge mode, all my XG are in gateway mode.
    Documentation shows that mail scanning should work in bridge mode, so SPX should also (I hope).

    For XG to work with mail and SPX scanning in Legacy mode it should be:
    1) Current, activated "Email Protection" license,
    2) Firewall Business Application Rule LAN to WAN "Email Clients (POP & IMAP)" with scanning of all email protocols enabled,
    3) Defined Email Policy for SPX (as I wrote earlier).

    From the screens you have attached:
    As you wrote before, you only have external mail servers, so all you need is the LAN to WAN rule
    You do not have a SMTP rule to scan SPX.
    I have as below:
