Then port 25 blocking on the remote ISP is almost certainly the problem. If they get
a timeout telneting to port 25, but not port 110, it's almost certainly port 25
blocking. If they can't get to port 25 (and can get to port 110), and you can get to
port 25 locally, you can be sure that the remote ISP is blocking access to port 25.
