ok, I setup the new zone as you suggested and the only
thing I am not 100% sure about is what the FQ host
name of my mail server is. Is is mail.insurors.com or
iot5.insurorsindemnity.com? How do I find out. Then in
regards to forwarding the ports, where am I supposed to do
that from? my firewall, router, ? thanks
