You might want to check out the Astaro Security Gateway.
* Free for home use (up to 10 internal IPs)
* transparent e-mail encryption (with appropriate encryption keys)
* web proxy with filtering and scanning
* VPN features
* NAT and portforwarding
* Multiple NICs for multiple zones (i.e. external, DMZ, internal, guest,
etc)

I have the free version on an old Athlon 1800 (512MB RAM, 20GB HDD) and it
works like a champ (four NICS, transparent proxy, some port forwarding,
etc).
