Jason, I just did some research to try to clear this up. According to this: http://support.cox.net/custsup/email/email_info.shtml Cox does not block incoming port 25, they do however, block outgoing port 25 just as Earthlink does. You should be able to receive mail at a dynamic domain but you will not be able to send mail without configuring the mail server to relay through Cox's mail servers. If other people are unable to telnet to port 25 on your system, it might be because you are running a firewall that is dropping the traffic or your mail server is incorrectly configured and therefore is not active. -- Bryan Phinney Software Test Engineer
