It is also possible to use this hole for communication with other types of
servers than HTTP servers:

$ lynx "http://mail.site1.st:587/ HTTP/1.0
HELO mail.site1.st
MAIL FROM: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
RCPT TO: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
DATA
From: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Subject: This is..

This is an URL that sends an e-mail?
.
QUIT

"

You have to use the alternate port 587, because the normal port 25 is blocked.

The MTA will complain about the "GET / HTTP/1.0" string, but it still works.
