Good that you explained your method of the connection. And did you verify that you can reach localhost at port 25 with certainty? You can verify it by using `telnet': $ telnet localhost 25 and if there is banner then you have SMTP server forwarded to local host. Ports under 1024 can be forwarded only as `root' as they are considered privileged. If you cannot reach the port 25 on localhost try forwarding it to port 1025 and then dispatch to that port. -- Jean Take action in Free Software Foundation campaigns: https://www.fsf.org/campaigns In support of Richard M.
