Hi lonewolf74,

It seems that your mail server is working locally but not on the public network. Your mail server requires a port forwarding for it to send/receive. You may try opening a port for your SMTP server or depending on the port that needs to be opened so that it will passthrough from the firewall.

@lonewolf74,

Does your server requires SMTP? Some mail servers are using IMAP or POP3. It will still be depending on your mail server.

Have you tried doing a port scan just to check if the port is open?

Do you have a static ip on WAN? If yes, please make sure that the firewall is connected to a full bridge modem.
