smtpauth.sbcglobal.net is it accessible?

Switched from DSL to Uverse, and now server email is not flowing. Can not ping or telnet to smtpauth.sbcglobal.net. Can someone on the dsl side of the world test and see if you have access to this server.

It may be that the uverse is routed differently and does not have access to this server?

Will be looking for uverse workaround, but I can post in uverse for that answer.

So if you have dsl can you touch the smtpauth.sbcglobal.net server?

Strange....no I can't.

Probably just need to use the updated ones:

except that all the other ones need ssl, and this one didn't, and exchange does not do ssl. . .

The hoops att makes us jump through.

Thanks for the response, good data that I am not the only one.

I just tested the smtpauth.sbcglobal.net server and it passed an email notification from a device that doesn't do ssl.

Ok, Thanks for the info guys, it seems that there was an issue with the server when I posted this and Dennis seemed to confirm.

Now it appears that the server is up, but on the uverse side of at&t my port 25 block opt out did not transfer to uverse.

telnet smtpauth.sbcglobal.net 25
Connecting To smtpauth.sbcglobal.net...Could not open connection to the host, on
 port 25: Connect failed
 

Thanks for the confirmations, appreciate the help.

Port 587 seems to work.

It did work when I first used it as an SBC customer; but I don't have an AT&T login now.

I lost port 25 access when I quit AT&T (I had requested removal from the block in early 2003; quit AT&T in 2011).

My new ISP blocks port 25 both directions on dynamic IP accounts; but not on static IP accounts.
