I can't telnet to port 25 from a remote computer on the internet. I can ssh in (not port 25) and I can also view web pages on my web server. I can telnet to 25 from a computer on my home network. www.grc.com reports port 25 as closed if this makes a difference. Is there a setting I need to put in hosts.allow? Thanks
