I should have said, perhaps, that shorewall is working perfectly for me,
under both CentOS-6 and CentOS-7.
I run amavis under CentOS-6 to incorporate spamassassin and clamav.
However, amavisd-new wasn't available when I installed CentOS-7 -
I know it is available now - so I went on a strange journey
using dovecot-pigeonhole and sieve, which I would not recommend to anyone.

It worked fine for me for years - what do you have against it?

When I started using it, before sendmail.mc was introduced,
I found it even more difficult to configure than postfix today.
