Create a new network definition (Definitions --> Network) for the POP3 mail server that you get your mail from. Use netmask 32 in the definition. You need to know the IP address of your POP3 server in order to create the definition, so open a DOS box on your PC and ping it first.
Then go into Proxies --> POP3 and enable the proxy. Create a definition with Source = Internal_Network and Destination =
Is your POP3 email server on the local network, or out on the Internet somewhere?
If the POP3 server is local, and the client is remote, you should do your mail filtering using the SMTP proxy, processing the mail as it is coming in to your mail server from other servers.
If the POP 3 server is remote, and the client is also remote, you have the option to use a PPTP tunnel from the remote client to the Internal network, and then accessing your POP3 email inside the tunnel.
Well then, as I pointed out, do a PPTP tunnel to your ASL router. Configure your POP3 proxy with an additional entry where the Source is the PPTP-Pool and the Destination is your external mail server. Whenever you want the benefit of going through the ASL POP3 proxy when you are outside the local network, open a PPTP tunnel back to the ASL box first, and then open your email client. You will likely need Win2K or WinXP on your remote client machine for this to approach to work. I don't think the older versions of Windows can act as PPTP clients.
