Hello,
 
I've recently read that one can use "telnet www.thedomainname.com 25"
in order to troubleshoot smtp mail problems.
 
I noticed that doing this with some domains yields a response of the smtp server name and software version.
 
On other domains such as amazon, or microsoft, there is a failure to connect message.
 
Is the ability to successfully telnet to port 25 a security issue? 
 
Thanks
Kim
