Didn't find what MSA means. In my /etc/services port 587 isn't
mentioned. If it's only to open another port the firewall sems to be
senseless, isn't it? The Exchange is configured with AUTH and LOGIN
but I hve to go through fw first. When I am at a host behind the fw
via ssh it is no problem to access that stinky exchange.

wxim is set up with the smarthost exserver and authenticate_hosts =
exserver :-(

BTW postfix is able to connect via an ssh-tunnel.
