Hey,

For me setting up a firewall should not be part of the qmailtoaster setup 
process. People can get a hint they should use a firewall but in the end that 
should be left an admin decision and under their control.

It also caused issues for me a long time ago. Took me a bit to figure out that 
my rules did not apply and toaster added some of its own.

Cheers,
Sebastian
