Chris,
Excellent catch on the : vs. space. (I wasn't trying to ssh in to port
25, but I may have been unclear.) My morning's experiment below. On
Monday I will try your Emailer. What do I download from that page?

(First I tried to connect to the web server from my laptop. It
answered. Then I tried to connect to SMTP. It didn't answer. So I
ssh'd to the machine and it DOES answer on port 25 locally.)
