Might want to add "conduit" statements for pop3, 8383 (web messaging)
and 8181 (web admin, if you need to remotely manage server) and 8384
(SSL web messaging). Just substitute the keyword (pop3) or port number
in place of the "smtp" in Peter's example below. Of course I wouldn't
add any of the 8XXX ports if you don't plan to use web messaging. Fewer
holes in the firewall, the better.
