Karl, how is your firewall set up? If you have NAT'ing enabled, make sure that 
there is a port forwarding to everything that you need. I am presuming that 
your mail installation is using sendmail (and is either a smart host or you are 
forwarding the internal mail to a smart host), the imap port (non-ssl if you're 
using port 143) and a web server (like apache) that also is not doing SSL to 
the outside world.


Cheers,
