This blocking is becoming fairly common. There are just so many trojaned Microsoft systems spewing spam that ISP's just block port-25 outgoing across the board. Hopefully they are set up to unblock individual users on demand. My ISP (sonic.net) defaults to blocking port-25 outgoing, but has no problem unblocking, no questions asked. -wolfgang -- Wolfgang S.
