<div>Hello All, </div>
<div> </div>
<div>A quick question regarding the stunnel ability to work with the following scenario. </div>
<div> </div>
<div>Scenario is: I have an Exchange Server sitting on the external perimeter with Outlook Web Access (OWA) enabled and it is the frontend and backend mail server as well. And I have a remote client which has a Thunderbird Client (for example) that I need it to connect to the Exchange Server to retrieve emails. </div>
<div>The only inbound port to the Exchange Server from a network perspective is HTTPS-443 and no other ports are open on the firewall. </div>
<div> </div>
<div>Now the question is how can a client thunderbird connect to the Exchange Server/OWA with only 443 port open. </div>
<div> </div>
<div>So what i was thinking is and tell me if this works? </div>
<div> </div>
<div>If i install two instances of STUNNEL one on the remote client and one on the exchange server and the following happens. </div>
<div>on the client the stunnel listens on port 25 SMTP and encrypts and forwards to port 443 </div>
<div>then the server recieves and listens on port 443 and decrypts and forwards to port 110 POP3 </div>
<div> </div>
<div>will that work actually? hmmm i wish i explained that pretty well. if not then how can it work with the given scenario. </div>
<div> </div>
<div>cheerz. </div></div>
