I use sbs 4.5 as well, in fact it may have been my post that you were
referring to.
Still, I can't get this to work. I am rapidly starting to think that
Demon do something
weird with regards to working out who is connected. Once I have IP
filtering in place,
and have set up what /should/ be the correct filters, only a mailkick
from a demon tech
will start the mails flowing. I have tried setting a filter for identd
with remote host
set to any, I have set open stmp ports for all the demon mail servers I
could find IP 
addresses for (at least 15!). I even set a filter opening SMTP for both
directions and
any remote host IP but still no joy - unless Demon did a mailkick and
then the email
would come in. The weird thing was that I didn't have to drop and
reconnect. The 
filters worked fine and let in what they were supposed to. It seems that
Demon  just don't
send the mail. The Echange server is all ready to take the traffic, but
Demon just don't 
send! Now, since Demon don't support ETRN or TURN, how can we let them
know that we want
our mail? I assumed that the act of logging in would do it (as I guess
Demon did too) but 
what have we missed? 

Maybe we could collaborate via email once the group gets bored of us
SBSsers dissing Demon!
Sory to wibble, it's too late to be at work!!
