I have managed to set up dovecot and postfix. I can send mail internally; however, I cannot deliver a letter from outer source. I have tried to allow all actions on my firewall but I still continue to receive this error

Sounds it could be something else. Have you tried completely disabling your firewall and any realtime antivirus which could be blocking it?

Postfix is a complicated system and I do not immediately know what you should try next, I'm sorry. Normally I would expect that to be firewall-related, but we definitely don't block port 25 from our end, and you said that you tried with your firewall disabled.
Asking in a forum or mailing list dedicated to these software packages might work best.
