> gotta open  tcp ports > 1024 for sending mail

Do you mean *just* port 1024 or all ports greater than 1024?

This port we did not have open. We have the standard ports open for:

DNS
Web
FTP

These we found in article: IM-19980513-ES01.htm

>> SMTP 25
> >Password 106
> >POP3 110
> >IMAP4 143
> >LDAP 389
> >Web Admin 8181
> >Web Messaging 8383

There was no mention of 1024.

Thanks,

John Cesta
