              All of the rules you have below rule you have checked that is a any any rule for lan net to go wherever it wants are completely POINTLESS

              Unless where your going is on 10.1/16 you would be allowed.  What is the IP of email server? And what is your lan net?

                My LAN (192.168.1.0/24) –-->--- {{inside 192.168.1.1 ---[MyPFsense]–-outside 192.168.5.30}}----->--- Internet

                normally it should works with the rule any any but it is not , do i need any routing,nating or forwarding actions , should i open some ports for the email protocols somewhere in the proxy server or squid ????!!!
                my email server on the internet is (imap.sercureserver.net & smtpout.secureserver.net)

                best regards
