that's normal. any competent ISP in the philippines will do that. it's to prevent spammers from getting an account and sending out spam from the ISP's subnet. if too much of that happens, entire ISPs can get their subnet blackholed. if you want to send email, use your ISP's SMTP server. if you don't like that, use gmail (SMTP over SSL, which is not blocked), if you don't like that, use your office SMTP server over a VPN. if your office doesn't like that, buy a VPS somewhere and send your mail through that. or send email through yahoo via yahoopops or similar. lots of options. you just can't use your home computer as your own SMTP server. tiger _________________________________________________ Kagay-Anon Linux Users' Group (KLUG) Mailing List [email protected] (http://cdo.linux.org.ph) Searchable Archives: http://archives.free.net.ph
