'k, sorry, you did say that in your last to me ... but, wouldn't *that* imply 
that it is suddenly now okay to open up port 25?  What I think is losing me 
here is why add a new port, when port 25 itself *should* already be 'only 
allowed authenticated'?  Or, when you say "Only", do you mean even from the 
local network, no exceptions?
