[ILUG] Stange Email Problems

[ILUG] Stange Email Problems

Hi,

I recently moved our company mail to a new machine with QMail running on
Redhat 9. Having always used closed source mail servers before(Netscape
Mail and Sun Mail server) I am not a QMail expert but it has been easy
enough to work with.

Everything appeared to be working fine, with all mail being routed
correctly and sending and receiving working for all users, both from
inside and outside our offices.

However, last week some people travelled abroad. If they connected via a
broadband connection everything works fine. But if they connect via
wireless or dialup they cannot send mail to external addresses.

If I look at the logs in /var/qmail/current I don't see any failed
sending, and if I get their ip while dialed up and
check /var/qmail/smtpd/current I can't see a connection to the server
from that ip. 

Any ideas? Is there some sort of rule set up in QMail by default that I
should be aware of?

Thanks in advance,

Keith
