Hi Folks,

I am trying to receive email through MS Proxy 2.0 from demon but when I
enable IP filtering I don't receive any email. I have made several
filters with  port 25 as smtp and the remote host as one of demons mail
servers (I think I have covered all of demons mail server IPs) but no
joy.

Also, If I connect and ask Demon help to do a mail kick while I am still
connected, the mail comes in fine so it seems that demon don't recognise
me when I have dialed up. Does anyone know how this could be solved so
that I can have my firewall active but receive mail from demon? 

I did try opening the Ident port, but with no joy (but I'm not to clear
on how this one works)

TIA
Miles
