can somebody write me a rule to detect simple mail Traffic from HOME_NET
-> EXTERNAL_NET?

Assuming you just mean SMTP by 'simple mail traffic':

alert tcp $HOME_NET any -> $EXTERNAL_NET 25 (msg:"SMTP detected"; flow:established; sid:3000001;)

should do the job.

Remove 'flow:established' if you want to detect SMTP scans as well as successfully-established connections.

thanks

Alex.
