PLEASE PLEASE! DO NOT MAKE THE FIREWALL SERVE A BUNCH OF SERVICES!
Make a server that does file (samba), mail (smtp and imap over ssl),
print (samba), and internal DNS. Make a second machine that does the
firewall. From the inside, all clients access the samba/mail server
directly. From the outside, you forward port 25 (smtp) and 993 (imaps)
into the server.
Doing it all on one machine is ASKING to lose all your important data.
