Included with the fwtk is the smap/smapd pair for proxying e-mail. It will handle smtp without blinking. As for POP are you talking that you need to get POP connection through the firewall or just get mail through?

Subject: POP proxy availabilty
I am building a firewall for a small commercial network (6 PC's,
NT, 95, Win3) I'm basing the solution on Linux running the TIS
FWTK (primarily because of cost, but i also feel relatively
comfortable with the bits and pieces)
As it comes, the fwtk supports http, ftp & telnet sufficiently
for my needs. The next hurdle is email. I could use the 'plug'
proxy to cover most email situations. My understanding is that you
can setup 1-to-1 and many-to-1 relationships with the 'plug' proxy
but not 1-to-many (ie one client, many mailboxes) This might be
limiting. (At the moment their email is a little messy)
Does a POP/SMTP proxy exist that would fit in with the fwtk? Is
there a standalone POP/SMTP proxy available in some form? (that
would run on linux/unix - source code preferably) or does
smap/smapd solve the problem?
regards,
