Guys i'm getting mad.
I said no to installer when promped if i wanted to use iredmail firewall, but however iredmail use some kind of script that load the same iptables config everytime i reboot.
How in the blue hell can i remove this script for using mine?
Searched in all init-init.d-rc files but i found nothing.

Dave

Check script /etc/init.d//iptables. You can disable it with below command:

# update-rc.d iptables remove

iRedMail installs /etc/init.d/iptables and /etc/default/iptables on Debian, if you don't have them, i have no idea why this issue occurs.

Fix:
Installed iptables-persistent, edited /etc/iptables/rules.v4 with my rules and added

service iptables-persistent start

in /etc/rc.local file

Re: uninstalling/removing/deleting iredmail startup iptables script

This is not expected. your server should have /etc/init.d/iptables and /etc/default/iptables installed by iRedMail on Debian.
