I am sure many of you have had to deal with Spark's port 25 block, a
spam security measure that they implemented late last year. The problem
is how to send email from a different host's email account, using email
client software, while connected to Spark network.
This worked for me.

Thank you Wayne. This link explains the situation well.
As a Snap customer I am less familiar with the Spark setup. Thanks
everyone for the comments provided.
N.B. the solution is for a domestic-style office network, that is
shared by two non-profit organisations, with plain desktop or laptop
use - no email servers or specialised computers their end,
connectivity by Spark.
One user wishes to use their laptop email system, served by Vodaphone
at home, at work. Wayne's link shows how this situation can be
resolved, where POP works but SMTP (port 25) doesn't. I may try some
alternate ports, but the user will probably switch to Gmail for
simplicity's sake, and the merging of the email accounts - that the
link suggests - is better avoided (unless the same user owned them both).
Linux connection - it is part of the platform from which I write here,
and has brought together a community that practically always knows the
advanced technical answers. Thank you for entertaining this off-topic
question.
Regards
Rik

TBH you'd be better off using Sparcs smarthost to send. Most providers
will just drop SMTP traffic direct from a consumer IP address no matter
what you do.
