      i refered to this url and somehow snort setup done. but few minutes later, E-mail (Use Thunderbird) can't connect mail server , then i see block tab , found the cause.(pop3 servers address is there)  and i back pfsense top screen , go firewall -> Aliases , regist ip address (named pop3_allow) , then go snort service screen , PassLists tab , add Aliases include ip addresseds  made in Aliases tab.

      but , not yet E-Mail can't connect pop3 servers…pass list is registerd then -> snort don't block/investigate about this ip addresses , through thease . do will i add more settings to snort menu ? Please instract me how to set it up :'(.

        Did you clear the IP in the "Blocked" Tab.

            Try to stop/start the Snort Interface where the alert is occurring.

              thanks for reply . i think it seems to be blocked pop3 access unless snort remaining blocklist . remaining pop3 IP in the blocklist , Disable(in WAN Settings) or Stop(Status: Services)  to snort , E-mail don't run.

              and i retry clear blocklist . even though off/stop snort runs somewhere (pop3 blocks) , but blocklist was cleared , E-Mail accesss good run.

              my situation is such a feeling first of all. waiting for reply. :)

                As the final step, after you created and save the passlist_10385 entry, did you then go to your WAN SETTINGS in Snort and assign that pass list name to the running interface and then restart the interface?

                Post a screenshot of the WAN SETTINGS tab from your Snort instance showing the assigned PASS LIST.

                  Thanks for reply. following your instruct , and after restart PFSense , Snort recognize my whitelist ! E-Mail runs good , but port80/443 needed access in blocked hosts list , individually add IP/Networks needed( Akamai , etc…). a few time it needs , but once setup this , after it's be all right.

                  Snort WanSettings -> Pass List fields is below.

                  Thanks for reply , my snort problem is solved :D

                    Glad you got it working.  That final step of actually assigning the Pass List to the desired interface is frequently missed.
