Tarik - Yes, it is.

Rather than just explaining what I cannot do, perhaps it is helpful 
to see the issue like this:

	I am trying to use the Firewall IP address as the gateway,
	whilst at the same time the DHCP server is assigning the IP 
address to my Mac.

HOW can this be set up in Jaguar 10.2.8 ?

 From reading the Manual in the Unix terminal, I get the impression 
that I should be doing something with this command:

  	route [-n] command [-net | -host] destination gateway [netmask]

with this modifier:

  	-static    RTF_STATIC     - manually added route

although I do not plan to "experiment" with such a command unless I 
get some specific guidance.

Our PC support guy is very busy right now in supporting the computers 
handling the on-site student registration (7000 students being 
registered) so he is not likely to have time at the moment....

but I am desperate to find a way to access my POP mail servers 
throught the firewall, so any help from anyone on thre List would be 
greatly appreciated.
