I have setup my network so that there is a firewall with NAT enabled. Web
and IMAP are forwarded by the firewall to a server. The firewall has a
public IP address and a DNS entry from the outside world, so when people
connect to that outside IP or public name, from the outside world, their
requests get routed properly to the web server, or the IMAP server.
The people within the office have laptops. If I configure their laptop IMAP
or pop3 clients to use the internal private IP address, then when they go
home, they can't use those configured accounts as the IP is private, but it
works great within the office. If I configure the laptops with the public
IP and/or DNS entry, then they can check mail and stuff from home, but not
from within the office.
How do I set it up so that I can have their laptops configured to work
within the network, and from outside the network without having to create
multiple mail accounts on their laptops?
Thanks a lot,
