okay, I added the setup keyword and it seemed to get rid of the 
"OUCH! cannot remove rule, count 1" message.

I also noticed that if I open an smtp connection to the computer, 
and then close it and wait a minute, I can't make another smtp 
connection to the firewalled machine.  Is there a way to define
that I want any machine to be able to have 1 and only one smtp connection?

or will this always limit them for a set period of time?
