It sounds like her provider is blocking port 25 although since you then say it works fine from someone else's computer using the same provider, that seems not to be true. But verify they are using the same dialup number. I've found that my ISP has dial-up outsourced to at least two different dial-up providers and with one, I can send mail out via my server but with the other, port 25 is blocked and I have to send via the ISP's server. -- Larry Stone [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.stonejongleux.com/ ############################################################# This message is sent to you because you are subscribed to the mailing list <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>.
