How To Restrict SMTP To WAN2?
-
I've just set up a dual WAN config with two different ISPs. I get my email service hosted with my ISP, and they restrict SMTP access to their WAN connection (WAN2 in my setup). Is there a quick rule I can make to make sure that any request to the SMTP server (smtp.myisp.com) goes through WAN2? Another option would be to ensure that anything going over port 25 goes through WAN2.
Is either possible?
Thank you for any help or suggestions!

Yes use a rule with the smtp protocol and the right gateway before your loadbalancing rule
