I upgraded a database from 10203 to 11203 recently. The corresponding app sends mails from a PL/SQL package, and of course, it barfed. I had to create the ACLs like you did in your example. I documented it at http://qdosmsq.dunbar-it.co.uk/blog/2013/02/cannot-send-emails-or-read-web-servers-from-oracle-11g/ which is basically my "little black book of thoughts". I didn't need the "resolve" privilege either, just "connect".
