One more example of DMZs creating more grief for a newbie than benefit...

The Smoothie has those ports open to your web server, but it's not routing the
packets to your dovecot server.  We know the ports are open because you get
"Connection refused", which is what Linux does when no service daemon is
listening and responding on a port.  Translated into newbie speak:  It's the
Smoothie box itself which said "Connection refused" to your web server.

So, now you need to learn about Smoothie/Linux IP routing.  The guys on the
forum you mentioned should be able to assist.  That's a better place to get
assistance, as your problem has nothing to do with Dovecot.

Good luck.
