There is, redirecting port 25 traffic. I discovered an ISP was doing this by accident, when I switched to my backup ISP and forgot to change my mail settings. It was only later that I realised mail was still going out, despite my software being set to use a different ISP's server. So I sent myself a mail and checked the headers, they were redirecting all outgoing port 25 traffic to their own server. -- Neil Bothwick A day without sunshine is like night.
