Dropped packet forwarded between two external interfaces

Hey Guys,

I have a group created that houses all my Internal network objects, but I am getting an error in my log file when users from one of these internal networks try to connect to external mailservers.

When users try to POP3 download mail messages a see an error in the log file saying :
"Dropped packet forwarded between two external interfaces"

I have a rule that says all incoming POP3 go to my mail server, would this rule be conflicting with internal users trying to pop3 to ext mail servers, when the message is trying to come back in?

How can I resolve this issue?

Cheers

Brad
 
Hey Guys,

Problem is solved.

I had neglected to add a static route on the checkpoint box for the branch site.

Now all works fine.

Cheers
