Creation Date: 11/03/03 Updated Last: 11/03/03 Some ISP services have enabled the blocking of Port 25, which will deny their users the ability to send e-mails to a remote server. This is a typical precautionary measure to reduce the amount of spam sent. Below is a list of known ISPs that currently block Port 25, and the default SMTP servers that must be used according to their Support Centers. ISP Service Default SMTP Server Name MSN smtp.email.msn.com EarthLink smtp.earthlink.net AT&T WorldNet mailhost.att.net MindSpring smtp.mindspring.com or mail.mindspring.com IBM smtp1.ibm.net Sprynet smtp.sprynet.com NetZero mail.netzero.net AltaVista email.1stup.com Yahoo smtp.mail.yahoo.com BellSouth Try "mail.bellsouth.net" first. The SMTP server depends on which city you are located in, if "mail.bellsouth.net" does not work, please contact BellSouth Access Support for the correct information. Verio In order for you to successfully send e-mails, you must first "POP" your Verio e-mail account by activating the SMTP server, and then use "smtp.veriomail.com" for all outgoing SMTP server settings within your e-mail client.
