Yeah. That's what I've had for a long time. Works fine, and I'd never allow an 
Internet connection to anything on the LAN. That's the whole purpose of the 
DMZ, as I understand it.

This suggestion was to run an SMTP reverse proxy on the firewall. I'm thinking 
about maybe doing that for HTTP because it'd be pretty easy to filter based on 
what would be legit HTML requests, but not for much else.

Thanks for the info...
