I suspect your ISP has activated new filter rules denying access to outside servers' port 25. Maybe they had a few spammers on their net... I'd bet they tell you to ask their smtp for relaying if you ask their support. That shouldn't be too hard to setup on your mail server. Maybe they insist in using SMTP-Auth for additional security when a non-local mail address is used as envelope from. HWH -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
