SMTP Proxy port 25 open at whole network

Version 7.3.05
Smpt proxy server is running in standard mode, this will open port 25 for ok,
but i don't want to listen all WAN addresses to port 25.

Is there a way to lock down port 25 from outside and open it to 1 address only.
Same issue with standard port 443 for ssl-vpn.

I would appreciate a tipp!

I think if you forward port 25 (DNAT)on the other ips to a fake destination you could get do want you want.

A null-route is a good idea, Keith, but I wonder if Shadowfly should be asking a diffferent question.
If you exclusively get inbound mail forwarded by upstream hosts, it is recommended to check the Upstream/Relay hosts only checkbox. This will limit access to SMTP to upstream and relay hosts (including authenticated relays).

In 'Mail Security >> SMTP' on the 'Relaying' tab, enter into the 'Upstream hosts/networks' the one host with the IP that you want to allow and check the box for 'Allow upstream/relay hosts only'. All outside attempts to access port 25 from other IPs will be blocked.
