When asking for help on iptables it is helpful to state exactly what you
are trying to do. It looks like you are running a mail server on
boundary box and trying to accept mail on 22 vis the INPUT line. If this
is true, why are you accepting only established/related on the INPUT
but on the FORWARD accepting NEW also.
My guess is that you are running a mail server on the inside LAN and
this boundary box is forwarding packets to the mail server. Before
I proceed, please elaborate.
