a lot of ISPs nowadays are blocking port 25 outbound.
this is probably the situation. You'll have to set up an additional smtp
service on an alternate port (587 is the defacto standard).
I would recommend setting up an SSL wrapped service with SMTP AUTH on port
465, to protect your users' login information.
