give me any suggestion please for this

 

[vipergg]

permit ip any any should be at the bottom of the list and you only need it once .

 

[ashokshabakah]

no actually i create a access lits to block smtp server that comes last right then i has to make permit ip any any again right

 

[Lundah]

You always want "permit ip any any" as the last line of the access list to avoid blocking traffic that doesn't match the rest of the list (unless of course this is what you want to happen). What else are you trying to do with the access list besides block an SMTP server? can you post the config?

Always put deny statements first, then permit statements, followed by the IP ANY ANY command at the bottom of the list as has been noted.

Reamin positive. The affect on those around you will amaze.
