You have to remove the reject rules on the chain table.. because a chain in the tables are run squentially.

So you cannot receive any incomming connection throught port 143, 993 and 21 because it was there the reject rules for all incomming connections. It's better you move the reject rules, to the end line of the chain tables of RH-Firewall-1-INPUT.

In most RedHat, Fedora or Centos which are using SELINUX, eventhough you have configure your iptables correctly, you also have to modify your SELINUX configurations, so things will run properly.

[EMAIL PROTECTED] david]# system-config-securitylevel

Run the command to activate your SELINUX rules, or disabled it ...

Is your toaster on a private IP address behind a firewall? If so, you'll need to modify your toaster firewall.sh to allow traffic from your local subnet.

Example (includes existing lines for reference):
## Drop all incoming fragments
iptables -A INPUT -i eth0 -f -j DROP
#
# shubes 5/16/06 - accept packets from local net
iptables -A INPUT -s 192.168.nnn.0/255.255.255.0 -j ACCEPT
#
## Drop outside packets with local addresses - anti-spoofing measure






You have your imap rules after your reject rule. That would explain imap not working. I don't know about the rest.
