I have Installed Virtual appliance of CipherMail gateway. As they mentioned in there document that secure web mail is add-on to virtual appliance and it can be accessable with 8443 port but im not able to get the secure webmail portal. Do I need to configure anything to get the Secure web mail portal.
that feature comes with enterprise edition. That's why not able to access the secure webmail.

More than a simple question-answer, this is more of a recommendation post. Want to see what ideas I have to work with. I am working on porting my company's work to the cloud (GCP) Most of this work is in the form of a pipeline. I'd like to notify completion via email.
The company I work for has a private network. And so the only way to use their mail config is to send it through their internet, and so, cannot use their SMTP-config from GCP.
What's the best way around this?
I'm looking into creating a VPN between GCP and our local network, however, that may not be possible (IT restrictions)
Do I have any other options?
EDIT
What an SMTP Relay work? This guy.
By default, Compute Engine allows outbound connections on all ports but port 25,so if you need to send an email from the instance you have to use port 465 or 587.
GCP explecitely recomends using other third-party tools such as SendGrid, Mailgun, and Mailjet because they offer a free tier package, you can skip all that and connect your instance to Gmail SMTP Relay Service. You will need a Google Account to connect (gmail or Gsuite).
Instructions to configure the Google Account are HERE , I tested sending emails from my MySQL server and Debian 9
I'm trying to host web pages using Win Server 2016. Currently, I have Jira and my personal web (IIS) servers. Using AWS, I currently have "myec2.com:port1" and "myec2.com/port2" running fine. And I'm planning to buy a domain "myname.com" to be connected to "myec2.long.name.com"
What I hope to do is "myname.com/jira" and "myname.com/mypage" or "jira.myname.com" and "mypage.myname.com" can redirect to Jira server and the IIS server. Is there a way I can achieve this goal?
Thanks in advance.
If you buy a domain like myname.com you will be able to configure any number of sub-domains such as jira.myname.com or mypage.myname.com as you like.
Usually what you would do is point those sub-domains to your server's IP then handle requests to those domains by setting up a web server (like apache or nginx) and configuring a virtual host (apache) or a server block (nginx) for each one of those sub-domains.
We have a simple system with a REST service (WebAPI) that will be hosted on one machine (hosted on IIS on a custom port, port numer 3031) and with a website hosted on another machine that will be talking to the service.
We want both to use SSL, so as I understand we will need to purchase two separate SSL certificates for the production deployment on the Internet.
Does that sound right?
If so, then I don't know how do I request and purchase a certificate for the WebAPI REST service... The service will be hosted on a custom port 3031, should I purchase a normal certificate for the domain name of the machine where the service will be hosted? And then should I basically install the certificate on the IIS on that machine (like it's described here: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/aspnet/web-api/overview/security/working-with-ssl-in-web-api).
How will I be able to perform a verification of the domain for the purchased certificate if I'm going to use the certificate for a REST service on a custom port? (not for a regular website).
Apologies for my ignorance, I have searched the forum to find an answer to my issue, but I didn't find one, maybe it's because my very limited knowledge about certificates and security.
Should I be able to setup secure gateway to be able to connect to my on-prem SQL server DB, using SQL Server Management Studio on my laptop from home (not on prem)?
You don't "have to" use the secure gateway in order for your application on the cloud to see your local db. You could simply give your application the public ip (and port) of the local machine and they should work fine.
It is however a good practise to use the Secure Gateway service as it can ensure the security of the local-to-cloud communication. Make sure to have a look at the documentation to learn how the service works - https://console.ng.bluemix.net/docs/services/SecureGateway/secure_gateway.html
I am looking for a little direction to my problem. Short story, I have a website hosted on a web server. I pay a yearly subscription. This year I am planning on taking it off and hosting it internally. I already backed up, restored, and installed all necessary components (on Windows BTW with IIS, PHP, and MySQL). The site works great internal and by IP address externally through a firewall. (IP address for now until my web host subscription expires, then I will forward and register DNS).
But now this is my problem, my website has email functionality which works on my providers server. I want to install a local mail server for my website that will wind up sending and receiving emails through my website. I am lost here. No sure which path I should take. I have installed and used Exchange 2003 in the past just for internal domains, nothing for internet AND internet.
Anyone with ideas, links, suggestions? I see that IIS does support SMTP virtual servers, is this a possible route? If so, what about POP3 or IMAP (incoming) server solutions?
Thanks
Edit
---Update On Situation---
So far I have configured a local exchange server that works with my local webserver. I then created a CNAME in my web host DNS zone for my IP address. I created a simple subdomain for my site redirected to my home web server. Everything works great, internal email through Exchange 2003 from website on IIS, redirected DNS names, almost there. Now I just need to create Internet Mail functionality in Exchange. Went through the Exchanges wizard to "open system" for Internet mail, created new SMTP connector and ....nothing for external mail test. Failed! Thought everything was configured properly. I also tried to open all ports on firewall, 25 and 110.
I'd recommend using something like PostMarkApp to send transactional email from the website, and use hosted email (Google Apps for Domains) for your email. Its a pain to run a real mail server.

Configure Exchange Internet Mail SMTP Connector
Well, I did figure it out. I was on the right path and everything was working but I just configured my client wrong and my ISp blocked port 25, duh. CHanged port to unused 366. But here is a little tip for anyone that may need to figure this out in the future.
1)Setup install IIS with default SMTP and NNTP virtual servers.
2)Install Exchange into organization. Internal naming convention doesn't really make a difference between internal to externally if you are behind a firewall. Basically this means you don't have to create a seperate zone in DNS if using this for a seperate domain hosted elsewhere. Hope this didn't confuse anyone.
3)Right click on server name in Exchange System Manager and go to Internet Mail Wizard
4)If you want your clients to hold a different domain email address than your internal you can setup in exchange through
Exchange System Manager >> Recipients >> Recipient Policies
Then add a Masquerade in Default SMTP Virtual Server
5)Have a gmail Internet SMTP connector set to smtp.gmail.com as smart host with a gmail email account settings and TLS checked
6)Default SMTP VS set with outbound port 587 and TLS checked
If you need to change SMTP ports too, don't forget to change not just firewall but also inside Exchange.
