Re: Having some problems with a FreeBSD mail server (SMTP)

Hi,

I run a mail server for my church. Today I was called that folks are
able to receive, but not send their mail. They are all currently
configured for POP3 (I use dovecot).

At home I tried to send mail to two different e-mail accounts of mine
using the church e-mail server and was successful. I used KMail for
this.

As I look through /var/log/maillog I do not even see
authid=<their_user_ids> in the mail log (I'm using TLS with
sendmail). One of the pastor's told me the error he's seeing is
"timeout." They are using Outlook, I'm not sure of the version.
What problems do people here usually encounter with Outlook mail
clients and their SMTP servers?

At this point, I'd just like to have some leads. Any ideas what
might be keeping them from sending? They can all log in and receive
e-mail POP3.

May be their ISPs filter the port 25 now?
