I've been using an alternate port for SMTP in conjunction with an upstream anti-spam/anti-virus service. The advantage has been multiple: crap traffic that relies on the MX record never finds its way to my WAN link, and crap traffic that randomly selects my WAN IP never gets past the firewall because I block all inbound traffic on port 25.
I will continue to use my external filtering service, but I'd really like to get some assistance in configuring the ASG to proxy for me on inbound messages; I can't see where the mail proxy could be configured for a different port for use in a situation like mine.
