I wish! I've run across places that seem to check that the reverse DNS matches the forward DNS name. I've seen it with Comcast and I gotta believe there are others doing it.

It may be possible that the big hosters know about each other and make special arrangements with each other to which little ol' me is not privvy. If anyone out there has any connections with the Comcast DNS people, I'd love to talk to you about this and other issues - but we're straying off the original topic.

My mailservers will have their own reverse. ATM they don't and work fine
too. It's not an issue. Sorry to hear you have to mess with that.
What you proposed is kind of the thing I had in mind. Instead of all the
forwarding rules I use "echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward". Is the
additional checking you propose worth it?
So the question, if I have to create virtual interfaces on the internal
box should be answered "YES, that's the only way"?
Have you had experience setting up postfix to work on several
interfaces? I have an idea, how to make apache work, quite familiar with
virtual hosts, but not postfix. It's not really a topic for this list
though.
Thanks,
Alex
Note: I seem to be missing the the first email of Greg, the one Robert
quoted. No idea why, there's even no spam filtering at my end. Found it
in the archives anyway.
