for those of you who follow the Omaha Linux groups list this has been a problem that they have faced with cox. the business accounts seem to be ok. what are the solutions if you want to run your own MTA? change you mx records? are they just blocking 25 out or in or both. USA PATRIOT Act maybe? http://www.epic.org/privacy/terrorism/hr3162.html http://www.eff.org/Privacy/Surveillance/Terrorism_militias/20011031_eff_usa_patriot_analysis.php Carnivore maybe? http://www.epic.org/privacy/carnivore/foia_documents.html The surveillance system captured not only the electronic communications of the court-authorized target, "but also picked up E-Mails on non-covered" individuals, a violation of federal wiretap law. http://www.epic.org/privacy/carnivore/5_02_release.html
yes i know its agenst the terms of service. but what is a server! i could install a system with win 95 and load some software and bam! i have a server. (ya it's a junk server but still!) when will they start blocking other ports? maybe irc ports, news group ports, etc. it just is a bad idea. if they have open relay problems than punish those people. if they aren't running anti virus on there server and some spam killing software than they are just trying to do somthing else. _______________________________________________ Join Excite! - http://www.excite.com The most personalized portal on the Web!
