Sure, the mail server is responding, but that doesn't explain the internal 
network response to the pings.   I don't think you can trace this problem 
from the outside.

My question to Stephan is:

Why do you have multiple network ranges all plugged in to eth1 on the 
Firewall?   Looks like a bad idea to me (I'm not saying it won't work, but I 
really don't like it).

Antony.
