Ladies and Gentlemen,

I think I am missing something.  I am running a FreeBSD 6. server with  
ipf compiled into the kernel.

Following are the headers from an email.

Following are the relevant entries from /var/log/maillog

Jul 27 14:33:22 mail postfix/smtpd[8557]: connect from  
213-84-78-162.adsl.xs4all.nl[82.95.130.154]

And, following is the output from ipfstat showing the relevant rule(s).

@140 block in quick proto tcp from 82.0.0.0/8 to any port = smtp



If I am looking at everything correctly all traffic coming into the  
system from the 82.0.0.0/8 network to port 25 on the mail server  
should be blocked.

What am I missing?



Thanks for your help.





Jay
