  • <host>:<port> (by default 127.0.0.1:10025) (SMTP) for operation of the mail transfer agent (MTA) filter, if MTA Filter is configured to accept connections, for example, from an external MTA over the TCP (SMTP) protocol.
  • <host>:<port> (by default 127.0.0.1:10025) (Milter) for operation of the mail transfer agent (MTA) filter, if MTA Filter is configured to accept connections, for example, from an external MTA over the Milter protocol.
