IP-chains should not be nessasary for netscape alone, setting the linux
box up as a proxy server should take care of that one, thats what i do.

As for ip-chains i just define each IP number, for example on the linux
mahcine have;

/sbin/ipchains -M -S 7200 10 160
/sbin/ipchains -P forward DENY
/sbin/ipchains -A forward -s xxx.xx.xx.xx/32 -j MASQ     

I define each IP# indipendantly.

Where xxx.xx.xx.xx is a machine on another network, it has routes to 44
ampr.org numbers via a Radio gateway, and a default route via the linux box
with the cable modem. So 44.xx.xx.xx routes go one way, all others via the
linux box to internet.

As to sending mail i dont quite understand the problem.
