Hi J,
The alternate SMTP port numbers for the above are:
softhome.net: 25000
mochamail.com: 2525
runbox.com: 26
yifan.net: 1025
These services do use different numbers, if that's what you meant. My
limited understanding is that the SMTP servers of these particular services
are programmed to "listen" for messages at a port other than the standard
25. In so doing, they will accept messages that arrive at their respective
ports and then treat the e-mails in the normal fashion.
