Louise Bowman,
Sorry for the late reply, been on holiday. Thanks for your
advise. I have finally got it to work with the clue from
you. Found that I need to create the following rules:
1) anyip to myip, anysourceport to 25
2) myip to anyip, 25 to anysourceport
3) anyip to myip, 25 to anysourceport
4) myip to anyip, anysourceport to 25

Thanks for your help :)
