Does anyone have any suggestions. When I have my firewall up and running with the beneath rules I am able to connect to the login page and login , but after logging in I get an error msg:"unablesqm to connect to your mail server".
When I drop the firewall everything works OK. Also I am unable to telnet into the localhost port (ie.. telnet localhost 25). What could it be?

Unless I am missing something I am allowing localhost out, but when I try to telnet into any port from localhost (ie...telnet localhost 25) it times out.
