Filters

I dunno if this is the place to ask about setting up an filter,
but here goes. I have made a filter called email with pmconsole:
permit udp dst eq domain
permit tcp dst eq smtp
permit tcp dst eq pop3
permit tcp dst eq auth
permit icmp

According to the portmaster book it says anything not in the filter is
denied, and i have added the filter-id="email" to the user in question.
What we are trying to do is set up a filter for just email only, so
connections to port 25,110 with auth as well as dns, However every time i
connect up it either blocks everything, or lets everything go through.
After reading the book, it looks easier than setting up router
access_lists, but it don't work :(, if anyone could help, i would appr.
it, thanks.
