Do you have any options corresponding to port settings in /etc/rc.conf? Do you run a firewall and maybe port redirection? Do you have /etc/hosts set up properly? What does % telnet <your public IP> 25 in contradiction to % telnet <your public IP> 587 show? Are you sure your ISP isn't filtering anything "for your comfortability"? :-) -- Polytropon Magdeburg, Germany Happy FreeBSD user since 4.0 Andra moi ennepe, Mousa, ... _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
