Hi Team,
I see some brute force attempts being made to my server through the zimbra soap port 7073, this port is open for internet from my zimbra server, I read wiki article here "https://wiki.zimbra.com/wiki/Security/Collab/87" says saslauthd now listens on 7073 and this port should firewalld blocked from internet, should I close this port from internet?
brute force log:

In my opinion, the only ports that should be open to the internet are those that are servicing your users. Email ports and the User's web interface on HTTPS. All other ports should be closed.

I do not have my Zimbra server directly on the internet. I have it sitting behind a pfSense firewall on my DMZ.
pfSense rules handle what is sent to the mail server.
