No, I'm not running a mail server. I need to help someone set up his/her mail

what to expect, although a quick test should make it obvious.
Yes, I do run a mail server using Linux.

I use port 25 on Verizon DSL and do not use their SMTP server. It is
not blocked.
With some other ISPs I use port 26 or 587.
Port 25 is often blocked for security reasons.
For SMTP, we've been using port 465 SSL for smtp.correo.yahoo.es, port
465 TLS for smtp.gmail.com, port 587 TLS for outgoing.verizon.net. I can
send from any of my email accounts through all three, but the gmail SMTP

Correct me if I am wrong but drupal is just a software Content
