Topic: fail2ban and firewalld in centos7

==== REQUIRED BASIC INFO OF YOUR IREDMAIL SERVER ====
- iRedMail version (check /etc/iredmail-release):
- Deployed with iRedMail Easy or the downloadable installer?
- Linux/BSD distribution name and version:
- Store mail accounts in which backend (LDAP/MySQL/PGSQL):
- Web server (Apache or Nginx):
- Manage mail accounts with iRedAdmin-Pro?
- [IMPORTANT] Related original log or error message is required if you're experiencing an issue.
====
Hi, I have not yet enabled firewalld service in iredmail(Centos7.6+Mysqlsql). Therefore fail2ban have not been working since I installed iredmail.
I decided to disable firewald (delete all rules) and install iptables instead. Should I add rules for fail2ban to work correctly?

fail2ban + firewalld should work fine since firewalld relies on iptables too.

No changes required to iRedMail fail2ban config.
