[xmail] XMail SMTP outgoing port?
Hi all, Is it possible to configure XMail to run on a non-standard port only for outgoing connections? My ISP is blocking port 25 for outbound only, but if I understand the documentation correctly; if I change the port using -Sp port XMail will stop listening to port 25 for inbound connections so I will have problems receiving mails. Is there any solution to this problem? Thanks in advance -fred - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe xmail" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] For general help: send the line "help" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Unfortunately, remote SMTP servers have the bad habit to listen to port 25 ;) - Davide - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe xmail" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] For general help: send the line "help" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Thanks for the reply Davide, I understand that point. But how would one configure it's server to listen on 25 for inbound and listen on another port for when a user wants to send mails, it this even possible? What are the solutions when the ISP blocks 25/465 for sending mails = then?

Erm, the server does NOT listen when sending emails. It connects, and it has to connect to remote SMTP servers port (25). So if your ISP blocks oubound connections to port 25, you're pretty much screwed. - Davide - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe xmail" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] For general help: send the line "help" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Dear Fred, Are you sure port 25 is blocked for outbound? Maybe I've got it wrong, but how does your e-mail client send it's mails to the rest of the world? Which smtp-server do you use in Outlook or whatever you use? Maybe you can use it as a mail-forwarder (smarthost)?

Thanks for your replies, Well, it's not really blocked, it works IF you are using the ISP SMTP. But this ISP prevents the use other SMTP other than their own. At work, where I am right now, my SMTP server works because we have a fixed IP and the ISP let us use it. But at home, with a standard internet link from this same ISP they block all except their own smtp. So if I am at home, I -Cannot send using my smtp -Cannot send using my SSL smtp -Cannot send using their smtp with my domain (they have activated SMTP-auth) -Can only send mail using the email they gave me when I got this link installed ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) The only way I could send mails with my domain would be to set up SMTP auth in my mail client with the username/password I have for [EMAIL PROTECTED] account, but they told me this won't work for a long time.

You can always setup XMail to use your ISP SMTP server as outbound MTA. - Davide - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe xmail" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] For general help: send the line "help" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
