there is no firewall on the proxmox mail gateway. as a rule, you should NEVER connect a server to the internet without a firewall.

why do you want to operate a network without a firewall?

only ask...because I want to make a test to new domain and I don't have a license available on curent proxmox to add another domain! But I will do the test without firewall to see what happen in 24h

I try to configure a firewall direct on test computer

if you need a proxmox mail gateway trial license for testing, just request one at office@proxmox.com.

I already test existing domains so I can't add them again)! I will do the test...in the name of sience
