CANNOT SEND EMAIL?
If you can receive email however you cannot
send email and the settings are exactly as shown above, change your
outgoing mail (SMTP) port from the default of 25 to
587, or
8025, or
40.
Reason:
In order to combat spam, some Internet Service Providers (ISPs) block
traffic to external servers on port 25 so that customers using that ISP
can only use the ISP's mail server. If that customer is going to spam,
the idea is that they must use the ISP's mail server to spam and
therefore be caught very quickly, and handled accordingly. Realizing
that many ISP's mail servers have a more restrictive options (ie. not
being able to send to more than 100 people at a time) as they are
usually residential mail servers, we have opened an alternative port to
allow you to send mail using our mail servers, one that the ISPs do not
block. That port is SMTP port 587. |
