My question is.. Can I bind everything that's not actually serving data to the internet to localhost? Does LDAP really need to be open to the world? At the very least, could I block access to these ports via iptables? Do the 70** addresses need to be available to the public, or does the iptables redirect act as a proxy?

What ports does the web application connect to?
You can restrict lots of ports to be local only if you have a single node install. Many things need to be open in a multi-node install. In those cases we expect you to have a firewall that will open only your SSL service port to the internet.

In general all you need is to open 80/443 for the web then rest can be closed off unless you need IMAP/POP external.
