Actually, port 25 is NOT supposed to be used for an end-user client to submit mail to a server. Port 587 was designated the submission port some time ago, and should be used for all end-user to SMTP server connections. This is WHY port 25 is being blocked or redirected. Depoly SPF, use the submission port to talk to your own mail server, problem solved. ========================================================== Chris Candreva -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- (914) 967-7816 WestNet Internet Services of Westchester http://www.westnet.com/
