Wowsers……This is pretty good stuff Lukor!
Firstly , yeah , it’s pretty risky that my mail server carries the chance of spammers but my site will be closed knitted so the likely-hood of mis-use will be narrower.
{Just as a Warning:My site is an Adult-Themed-Site and when completed will be based on a paid membership basis only}:But somehow people have seem to be accessing my site already and it not even completed yet.
So are you saying that if I put Avast on port 2525 , then it will still scan port 25?
As it is right now i’ll tell you how i have a few things set up
My router has port:25 forwarded to this machine .
My mail server is : just a freebie with only 2 options available ; 1) DNS ? { set on auto-find } 2) listen to port ? {set to port:25[Default]
I seem to get the feeling that you understand what I’m using the mail server for.
I have also been consulting with another user ( the only real help available on the phpBB forums ) on phpBB Forums ; he said that it may be possible but not actually necessary to go ahead and forward port:110 ; he said that it may be possible that avast was scanning the mail but was’nt /able to/sending it back to the SMTP mail server or that the SMTP mail server could’nt deliver the mail because of port:110 being closed off even though port:110 had nothing to do with it and in turn , somehow , kicking back to avast.
I have’nt a clue but it kinda made alot of sense to me so i fowarded the port:110
Just for the heck of it; this morning .
So , I’ll go ahead and change avast.ini to “127.0.0.1:2525”
And might as well Update to the new release as well while I’m at it.
