  1. You can also use the Rewrite As or Replace option in a rule to configure the Firebox to change the Mail From and Mail To components of your email address to a different value. This feature is also known as SMTP masquerading. For example, you can create a rule for the Mail From or Rcpt To to replace olddomain.com with newdomain.com.

    What rule in the SMTP-Outgoing proxy action can you use to prevent spam relay through your email server?

    a. Rcpt To
    b. Mail From
    c. Headers
    d. Authentication
    e. Greeting Rules

    Answer: B
