Yes, some ISPs deny connections to port 25, but that's why there's 'submission' service on port 587 where authentication should be required so any problem with sending spam directly to recipients is avoided. If his ISP denies connections to port 587, it's crazy. If his ESP doesn't support for authenticated SMTP on port different than 25, that's bad. Even gmail supports authenticated SMTP on port 587. -- Matus UHLAR - fantomas, uh...@fantomas.sk ; http://www.fantomas.sk/ Warning: I wish NOT to receive e-mail advertising to this address.
