. Configure {pmg} to forward the incoming SMTP traffic to your Mail
server ('Configuration/Mail Proxy/Default Relay') - 'Default
Relay' is your e-mail server.

. Configure your e-mail server to send all outgoing messages through
your {pmg} ('Smart Host', port 26 by default) - see
xref:fitering_outgoing_mail[Filtering outgoing e-mails].

For detailed deployment scenarios see the "{pmg} Deployment Guide".

If the installation succeeds you have to route all your incoming and
outgoing e-mail traffic to the Mail Gateway. For incoming traffic you
have to configure your firewall and/or DNS settings. For outgoing
traffic you need to change the existing e-mail server configuration.
