4710 outbound smtp problem

[smith4108]

I have a new ACE 4710. I am unable to get the mail server to send mail through the ACE. I have even set the ACL to any any both inside and outside. The mail server worked fine when it was behind the ALTEON load balancer.

Don't know what I am missing any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

It shouldn't be any problem.SMTP is nothing but a LAyer4 traffic on port 25.

Are you simply routing the SMTP traffic through the ACE or Loadbalancing the SMTP traffic?

Is the ACE in routed/bridged mode ?

what is the default gateway on SMTP server?
