Email protection

Jon,

you can filter Email using XG into MTA mode by:

• editing the current MX record to XG WAN IP
• Inside the XG forward the email to your external IP server

For the outboud email, you have to forward email from your email server to XG MTA IP (so the traffic is filtered).

Regards

Hi

edit the current MX record where?

i think for outbound you mean inbound. Cannot point all mail to the XG, not all users are behind the XG

I am new to this whole concept so please explain what you mean in words i can understand

Jon,

I suggest you to read how MTA and MX works generally on Google.

This is a general behaviour and it is not related to any vendor.

Thanks
