Ace,
I'm looking at moving the mail gateway to the DMZ after
the migration is complete. I'm trying to keep the
migration simple and complete it first before I redo the
mail topology again. I realize moving the gateway to the
DMZ will then display the proper address from the DMZ in
the header.
Thank you for your reply
