Just get a commricial service

if someone wants an e-mail service all they have to do is just get a commircial service for 30bucks more.
So blocking port 25 on residential services just keeps the spam down a bit.

Re: Just get a commricial service

But that won't work for the posters who make their livings sending spam.

If you're a spammer, and your ISP blocks outbound port 25, currently you pretty well have to change ISPs.

I cant even hit a reply to all if there are more them 1 people on the list.
You know when you get an email from a family member to the family.It is a complete joke.I understand the spam part of it, but if you cant reply to an email to all who got it whats the use?I had to family members arguing back and forth in an email last week, and couldnt tell them to stop if i hit reply all, instead of just reply...

What the heck are you talking about. What does this have to do with blocking port 25 outbound?? What you're descirbing is your ISP imposing some kind of bizarre maximum recipients per message rule on their relay. That has precisely jack to do with whether you can use port 25 outbound to do direct SMTP sends from your machine.

Re: Just get a commricial service

It falls into the same problem, I too have had the same problems emailing from my web server because of it, but someone told me to use my ISP as my SMTP to send the mail the problem is if the mailing list has more then 15 people on it (MY FAMILY) then it refuses to send it.

As if I owed you an explanation wiht your rude reply, you now have one!!!

Now shadup!!!!

my vongage phone service stopped working after i moved it to a frontiernet.net DSL connection. apparently in order to get the firmware update the isp needs to leave port 69 unblocked. i had to bring the cisco ata adapter to a optonline.net connection in order for it to update. it udated the firmware immediately and my Vonage service started working immediately. I am now going to have get rid of the Frontier DSL service.
