Hi there all,
just chen=cking the security of my firewall (sygate 4.2) and found t at if the e-mail scanner is allowed to access the internet it leaves ports 80 110 and 25 closed rather than stealthed if this service is not allowed to access the internet. Hope this makes sence. Does it need to access the internet? or can I block its access?
Best regards
Asterias
Asterias, I do not use Sygate but I suppose that if the Mail scanner (formely ashMailSv.exe) do not have access to the Internet, you will not receive your email...
The stealth status shows that the Firewall does not allow incoming access
from the Internet and not access
to the Internet.
In few words, as far I can see, your system is ok.
