I think Most of the time MmmSexChange is easier to make do smtps (note, that's not the same thing as SMTP-TLS) on port 465 - and some mailers can also handle that - some microsoft ones only do it. However I am not an MmmSexChange administrator so take that with a large grain of salt. Our setup here is port 25 NEVER relays. users can't use it for MUA's - they must use 587 with TLS, or 465 (smtps) for message submission. -Bob
