I'm looking into various firewall products (hardware and software) and like the Checkpoint on nokia, I'm wondering if this device can act as an smtp gate, where as I could add an MX record for it and have it fwd mail to my servers.

It seems to be a SMTP server. There is a smtpd in the module fw-1 VPN-1 and the documentation tell us about a window configuration that i dont find on the management server. And there is some configuration on each gateway.

So i'm sorry to not be sure but it seems to be a SMTP server.

It also depends on if you are looking for a gateway that will handle all responses and then forward on or
just present the port 25 of the mail server hiding internal IP and structure behind an external IP address.
