Believe me, this is a firewall problem. The remote machine (skytrackwhatever) , in your case might be having a firewall which is blocking an SMTP connection generating from an arbitrary port from your machine. You can try telnetting to other smtp servers. You can find the smtp server for a domain by the command : host -t mx blahblah.com rgds, Sanjay > > I can't seem to telnet any server on port 25; > > > > su-2.03# telnet skytrackercanada.com 25 > > Trying 209.188.66.29... > > telnet: connect to address 209.188.66.29: Operation timed out > > telnet: Unable to connect to remote host > > su-2.03# > > Are you sure you have access on port 25 on the remote machine?
