Many thanks for the clarification! Yes, this makes sense.

So I would have to delete all rules and write them again in the correct 
order? Very "uncomplicated" indeed ;-)

However, I now deletd the rule for 66.249.64.32 in UFW since the rule in 
iptables succeeded (without giving any special order).

Best wishes & thanks again: Michael
