Clive, Thanks for your answer. My hostname is jcostello.ath.cx.
(ath.cx is from DynDNS). I am not sure if someone can ping my machine, because I have a firewall and I dont know which port is for ping. I opened port 7 and nothing. But the telnet connection is working, so you can try: telnet jcostello.ath.cx 25 and should work. Yes, I remember I saw a trick for the problem. Well, lets continue reading. Thanks.
