[BlueOnyx:04403] Re: sending on port 2525...

[webmaster]

Wow the slim-bags are blocking 587 now?  What a freak'n headache.

Wonder when charter is going to do this, and my clients isp's?  So 
far so good. No phone calls ..... yet that is.

I am using port 26 on my old 550 box.  Started using it before I knew 
about 587, then opened up 587.

I am still convinced that this is just an attempt by the "big guys" 
to shut down us "little guys" since it is so.. darn easy to use 
another port to get around their block.
