Yesterday afternoon, Netvision was randomly blocking port 25 and 587,
pop3  (110) and 995. I called to complain and when I got through the
phone maze,  I was hung up on.

By around 10pm last night, things were back to normal, 587,110 and 995
were working.

SSH, HTTP and HTTPS worked the entire time.

I use a HOT cable modem and a PPTP tunnel.

I'll go with your second explanation.

BTW, does anyone know whom the new Minister of Telecommunications is?
The English press reported that there was one, but never mentioned who
it was.

Geoff.
