Hi guys,

I would like to use PMG as an outgoing gateway, accepting only auth SMTP connection to the server.
How can I do that?

Thanks

You mean SMTP Auth? I won’t believe PMG is designed therefor. If you only want to allow special connections, you need to allow the networks in the mail configured of PMG.

I mean that I want that only email addresses that use the authentication on my mail server, can use PMG ;)

PMG is no outgoing server by himself. The normal setup requires, that you have a mail server in front of PMG for outgoing mails. So you need to set up SMTP auth on your mail server. You need to allow just this server in PMG under networks. As outgoing mails go through another port on PMG, noone will usually go in error through PMG. If you would like to take sure, you should bring PMG behind a firewall or install a firewall on PMG and limit access to PMG outgoing SMTP port only to this mail server, you need to configure correct to only allow SMTP auth.
