I see. You are referring to -m mport --port*s* (by the way, there is a 
typo or are you referring to another module ?), which is different from 
-m multiport --port*s* port[...] - which I was referring to. Your rule was

... -m multiport --ports 22,23,24,25 -j ACCEPT

So I looked for multiport.

HTH,
