OK, need help from the Sendmail gods.. I need to reconfigure sendmail to listen for incoming request on a port other than 25. I know this will break a number of things, but it may also help me end-run Bellsouth's asinine block of outgoing (I can understand this somewhat) AND incoming (completely whacked IMHO) 25 traffic garbage.
What I need to do is to use my mail server for outgoing SMTP traffic. I can configure my client to send on alternate ports so that is not an issue. Mail will leave my laptop, travel to my mail server (on an unblocked port) sender (me) will get verified and then out through Bellsouth's SMTP via the smarthost relay (that's the only thing they did not break when I "Upgraded" my DSL). That way I don't need to keep changing my mail client settings depending on what network I happened to be on...
I know this breaks incoming to my server, that’s not an issue. I'm using a pop account on a server outside of the Bellsouth network for incoming mail. My biggest problem for the moment is to not have to mess with the client settings every time I change locations and networks.
Please don't tell me to change providers, I'm going to when I move in with the fiancé at the end of my lease.. I just need to end-run BS stupidity for a few months.
TIA
