Hello people,

From ~2week ago , when i try to retreive email i'have got a error message
how tell me hat the server is unreachable (that is false because i can
receive my email, and on other computer everything work perfectly)

i have made a check with : http://scan.sygatetech.com (to scan my port) and
on the 25 i read: SMTP 25 BLOCKED This port has not responded to any of our
probes. It appears to be completely stealthed.


so i have check if any firewall is active on this machine but no !!

i have install Mozilla thunderbird but i get the ~same error message !! so
what's wrong ?

Thank's a lot..

Does your ISP block port 25 to prevent running a mail server?

SMTP (port 25) is not required to retrieve mail, it's used for mail delivery
from one server to another.

If you can retrieve mail on computer A and not on computer B it is likely
settings on B are invalid. As stated by Dan -SMTP, Port 25 is used to send
mail, POP3, Port 110, is for retrieving mail
