Don't know if you've resolved this yet, but did you also configure port 80 for external access? Setting the port forwarding rule says what to do with the traffic on that port. Setting an external access rule says to allow traffic on that port. Two related but subltely different things....
I'm noticing with IPCop 1.4.x, the external access works a little differently than 1.3. You have tab options for port forwarding and external access. But when you are looking at a port forwarding rule, there is also an option there (the pencil with the + symbol) to add external access for the rule. But, I find that clicking this second option does not necessarily make it show up in the first option. But the traffic flows correctly (for me at least). Hope that helps some.
