If you are on Comcast
 

They just started monitoring and blocking port 25 on their network.

And this means?

Probably means that you can't run your email server from your home network because you can't accept SMTP (mail) traffic which comes through on port 25.

Sounds shitty.. wonder why they did that?

Exactly.

Seems to be more and more ISP's are going this way. BellSouth just did this also.

Shit... There goes my privacy.

Someone should put up a dyndns type of service for SMTP fowarding / port remapping.

feel like writing a new smtp rfc?

That's happening to SBC Yahoo too(Pac-Bell)

We just went with Comcast cable; and, so far, our email server isn't blocked.

When did this happen?

Get the Comcast Pro Package ($95 in NJ) 5 static ip's, 5 megs bandwith and you can run servers,vpn's or whatever else you want. It sure beats having to deal with their bullshit

Yep. I could still receive mail but recently had to change my Outlook settings in order to send any out.
