Hello,

Does you, or your ISP block outgoing port 25?
-----------------------------------------------
Well i dont know, hwat does that mean. I remember earlier i was able to
send email but now a days it doesnt work.


Do you run this on a machine that can be considered to be a valid email
server? (For example, you do not have dynamic IP).
-------------------------------------------------
Its my personal home computer P4 with win Xp and IIS. I have Cable
connection from Grande Communication. So far my IP is not dynamic.


Because of all spam, email server administrators use various attempts to
reduce the number of spam sent to their users, by for example making sure
that the sending email server is a true email server.

Please let me know, what i need to do to solve this problem as i was
able to do it before.

Many ISP's don't allow mail servers to run on their clients and block
port 25. It cures a number of trojan/virus issues and keeps the ISP
from getting blacklisted as a spam network.

many services, such as Hotmail, refuse connetions from dynamic IP
addresses since they are often used for sending spam.

Get your ISP to give you a static IP address and allow you to use a
mail server. If you don't, your chances of being blocked by mail
servers are getting higher every day.

Hello,

If you cannot connect on port 25 to a machine that you know should work to
connect to this port, then it is likely that your ISP blocks port 25.

I suggest that you contact your ISP about this.
