Hey, I'm trying to use this guide, do you know why you enable ssh in pf.conf?

Edit: oh dear, now I'm downloading the source for every program including ports.

What you mean by 'enable ssh in pf.conf'? What are you referring to?

Ok, found: pass in on egress proto tcp to any port ssh

It means that you need to open port 22 (ssh) in order to be able to log in as recommended firewall setting is to 'deny all' by default.

Thanks. That's weird, because I can already log in with ssh on port 22. I was asking because I didn't realize how it was related to a mail server. Now I understand you might want to log in remotely.
