Block outgoing port 25 for all but server?

[maxpower]

I've been searching and can't find an answer to this question: I would like to block all outgoing port 25 traffic except for my email server on a NetVanta 1335 with firmware R10.1.0.E. After much research and looking through the NetVanta I'm just not sure how to accomplish this. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Exact details depend on whether you are using NAT or not. Access-list on Private side should look something like this:

Assume your mail server is 192.168.22.22

ip access-list extended inside-to-public

  permit ip host 192.168.22.22 any

  deny tcp any any eq 25

  ! Any other outbound restrictions here

  permit ip any any

Then apply this ACL to your outbound policy-class on the LAN side facing the public, something like...

ip policy-class Private

  nat source list inside-to-public interface [interface name here] overload

Of course you'll need the appropriate reciprocal port-forwarding to allow inbound mail from the public to your mail server as well. Post your existing config if this doesn't help.
