Boxee is an offshoot of XBMC and they share code back forth. One of the

not.

Port 587 instead is, of course, another example of how wonderful
Comcast is. But we have tolerate bit torrent throttling and download caps.
From the discussion here on this list when I whined about about it,
it seems that Port 25 is the default for Windows spamming machines, so
Comcast uses
scripts for the various MTAa have always used the
machine's hostname which, of course, is only known on my
little internal network and is not the hostname assigned to
my modem's WAN connection and from which the client appears
to be connecting. In the past the ComCast SMTP server didn't
care how my
and security issues ComCast has to deal
with, etc, etc, but do they have to be so contemptuous and
hamfisted about *everything* - sheesh! This incident was
just a reminder that I need to finish getting my affairs in
order (changing email subscription addrs, etc) so we'll have
the option of total de
to
rewrite the config file and then restart Postfix every time
it happens.-/
I'd bet if you register a domain and use it Comcast will let you
through. $15/yr @dyndns. They also offer mail relay services at the
same price:

in sync with that
externally visible hostname ...
I'm no expert on Postfix, but from the logs, it appears Comcast is
rejecting your SMTP reverse-path (MAIL FROM), not your hostname
(HELO). (Windows mail clients almost never provide a valid HELO, so I
would be amazed if Comcast would require
is ...
They actually do document this, but it's all couched in terms of
Windows mail client configuration, so you prolly ignored it.
And the fun part about unauthenticated SMTP is that they have no
easy way of identifying the legitimate users still using the old
school methods. (Comcast gave up on tracking CPE MAC
had a problem until I
installed that anti-virus package from Comcast...
I've sadly needed to use port 587 ever since :(

[ this msg transmitted via ComCast's godawful WWW email tool ]
Once upon a time, ComCast invited customers to send copies of SPAM
messages (those few which managed to get past ComCast's filters)
to a particular email address, so I rigged my system to do so
because I presumed they'd use them
that.
Try giving it a domain name like c-99-99-99-999.hsd1.nh.comcast.net
(where the 99's are your comcast IP address).
You should at least get a bounce message from your own server since it
did detect that smtp.comcast.net rejected your message.
