Hello,

So this iptables should work?

/usr/sbin/iptables -F
/usr/sbin/iptables -A INPUT -p tcp -s 127.0.0.1 -j ACCEPT
# my networks as follows
/usr/sbin/iptables -A INPUT -p tcp -s 20.127.91.0/24 -j ACCEPT
# reject other ports than 25
/usr/sbin/iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport 993 -j REJECT --reject-with
tcp-reset
/usr/sbin/iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport 143 -j REJECT --reject-with
tcp-reset
/usr/sbin/iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport 465 -j REJECT --reject-with
tcp-reset
/usr/sbin/iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport 587 -j REJECT --reject-with
tcp-reset


Thank you again.

regards
Tom
