Slackware + Gateway + Outlook
I've mail server with slackware and outlook run with no problem at all. Now i want to set this servers as gateway for my local user use this as a gateway. I've search at EE and found some solutions that gave a rc.firewall scripts as a result and work fine. I also try use that scripts and work fine, my local user can connect to internet using my mail server as a gateway.
My problem is when i run rc.firewall, i cannot send email to outside, also when i try to login to my email from IE (squirrelmail) it said IMAP server errors. 110 port bla bla bla ( sorry forgot what it said)
I also try modify the rc.firewall by adding
$ipt -A INPUT -p tcp --dport 25 -j ACCEPT
$ipt -A INPUT -p tcp --dport 110 -j ACCEPT
but also cannot solve my problem ....
please expert any idea ??

I don't see where IMAP fits into this, other than the error that mentions IMAP for whatever reason.
The 550 5.7.1 is an SMTP code coming from the actual server, which means you are making communication with it. That particular error is probably because you are using "email@email.com" which is not one of the domains serviced by that box, and you are not on one of the networks considered trusted by that box. You just need to enable SMTP authentication to fix that issue.
As for the port 110 connection timeout...that is POP3, which again is not an IMAP issue. This should not be a problem since you have the iptables rule just like you do for SMTP. I would try to connect to the POP3 from someting on the same subnet to make sure it is actually working in the first place.

one more question
did you added a rule to allow anything to localhost? that can cause a lot of strange problems..
add this:
$ipt -I INPUT -A lo -j ACCEPT
