Eventualy I posted my problem a little to complicated; I'll simplifie my
problem a little bit.

I'm running a webserver on which port 80 (http) inbound, and port 25 (smtp)
outbound have to be enabled.
the rest has to be blocked. My question is: Is it possible to achieve this
by using IP Securtity Policies which I prefer because it helps to keep my
server clean. If it isn't possible, which firewall would you suggest?

Greetings,
