Re: Earthlink blocks port 25 outgoing!
I agree--AT&T WorldNet's port-25 policy is just as you describe: The port is initially blocked, but after 30 days (enough time for you to have to start paying for the service) you can call tech support and have the block removed. I used it all the time to send/receive mail through Yahoo! Mail (since WorldNet's own SMTP server is behind a firewall, so you can't use it while connected to another ISP). I guess I'll have to look and see if my new SWBell DSL line has a port-25 block... |
