ANYONE USING LINKSYS ROUTER WITH EMAIL SERVER

[swdk]

I NEED TO BE SURE IVE SET UP CORECTLY THE ROUTER AS I AM STILL NOT RECEIVING INTERNET EMAIL

Couple of questions for you:
1. Is the EMail server on the Internet side or your side?
2. What type of server is it?
3. What type of Linksys router are you using?
4. Are you using a static or dynamic IP address?

If think of others, will let you know.

Can anyone on the internet telnet into your exchange box on port 25 using the IP address?

What about using the domain name?

Setting up the router isn't difficult; you can either use port forwarding or put the server IP address in the DMZ.
