      I am trying to point public IPs to various servers on my network behind pfSense. I have gotten the IPs to work, i.e. I can access those specific boxes via the public IPs that I have assigned. However, my problem is that all traffic seems to originate from the pfSense interface address.

      For instance, I need my mail server to connect to the internet using it's own public IP address, not the interface address of pfSense.

      I've tried 1-to-1 and the inbound works fine, but whenever I initiate an outgoing connection it reports the interface address.

      I'm sure I'm doing something wrong here. Thanks in advance for the help.
