Dear Mr. Kruppa you need create nat rule in your Netgear Router where in you specify that your external ip address in your case 217.92.171.227 map to your fedora box which is let us say 192.168.10.4 or 192.168.10.5. Since SMTP would look for an actual server than just any machine whcih has port 25 forwarding enabled.
