Inbound port 25, and 456..  

 

I have lots of customers that block inbound to many ports, 81, 8080, 8181, 888, 
21-25, 53, 123, 161, etc..  Unless they pay for a static..

We just want to prevent residential email hosting.

Gonna need more than just 25/tcp (SMTP). Will also need 465/tcp (SMTPS) and 
587/tcp (SUBMISSION)... and you'll need to tie it to the user's IP/block 
obviously.... otherwise you'll have a LOT of unhappy users.

Ive been intending to block it inbound/outbound for some time. in 2022, other 
than mail server theres no legitimate reason to use that port.

Yes, or on the customer's router, either way. We block 25 but I'm not sure that 
is customary nowadays?

Would that be something you would configure in the border/edge router?

What is the best way to prevent customers from running their own email server?
