Known behaviour of CKP's SMTP ressource since 4.x (and probably even
older).

No fix available. Your only options: don't use a ressource (i.e. not in
that rule and in none above the rule in question) or don't use
CheckPoint.

Sorry if I'm grumpy, but (a) it is early in the morning and (b) if(!)
CKP rewrote the ressource servers from scratch for AI (=NG-FP4) as
boasted in their presentation, why didn't they fix this problem(s)?
