The rules you've put in to allow access to port 25 are in the INPUT chain. In IPtables the INPUT chain is ONLY for packets destined for the firewall itself - not for packets being routed on to some other host (this is different from IPchains, and is a common mistake for people changing over from one to the other). If you go back through your rules, and make sure that any which are supposed to be for packets going from one side of your firewall to the other are in the FORWARD chain, I think you'll get it working easily enough.
