ipchains blocks POP3 access

by rouse . Updated 24 years, 2 months ago

My newly installed rh7.2 server running sendmail cannot be accessed from my outlook clients uless I flush the ipchain rules. Can anybody look at this etc\sysconfig\ipchains and suggest a fix?
:input ACCEPT
:forward ACCEPT
:output ACCEPT

I’m pretty sure it’s rules 6&8, but I’ve tried deleting just those to no avail. So I just flush the whole thing and then clients can Pop the mail fine.
