You're preventing connections to port 25 completely?
Please post the contents of your smtp.rules file to be more clear on exactly
what you are allowing/disallowing.

rcpthosts lists machines/domains which you are willing to accept mail for.
They may be local, or they may be other machines for which you are providing
secondary MX service. This is expected behaviour.
Either you don't quite understand how internet mail works, or you're being
