Evening Travis The DNS database contains an MX(Mail Exchange) entry that forwards all email for your domain web.picosecond.com to 64.207.38.2. Your internal network (192.168.1.x) is shielded from the Internet by the firewall, all mail messages are forwarded to the firewall and the firewall intern forward it to the internal mail server (192.168.1.55). If you are setting up a new mail server with an different IP address as the original mail server you should have a problem. The rule on the firewall only allows for mail to be forwarded to 192.168.1.55, edit the rule on the firewall to reflect the ip address of the new mail server. Only if you place the 2 mail-servers directly on the Internet (in front of the firewall) would you need 2 extra addresses.
