I have this rule for masquerading outgoing connections: Chain POSTROUTING (policy ACCEPT) target prot opt source destination MASQUERADE all -- anywhere anywhere This indeed lets the mail box do anything else like accessing pyzor, razor, dcc ... all that works. RBL checks fail -- weird. Any further suggestions? I'll appreciate any -- thanks!
