I would suspect his ISP blocks port 25. That is very common for a normal consumer dynamic IP service. Even if he got port 25 unblocked, many servers block IPs belonging to dynamic servers anyway. To CyberMauher: If you want to run a mail server that's going to be accepted by the other servers it sends to, then get your own domain and negotiate with your ISP for a fixed IP. That way, you'll be able to run a functioning server on a shoestring. With my fixed IP I get specific permission to run mail and web servers, which is adequate for my needs. -- This is Spain.
