Sorry, misunderstood the issue. Some ISP's (I use Cox and I know this to be true with them) block all connections on port 25 to any server that is not their own. They also often restrict the "from" address to be a coming from their domain. Other ISP's will also often block you from you from using their servers from another ISP's network. Google may be doing this to you. Especially if you are using a non-gmail domain in the "from" field of the email To get past this you may need to spend a tiny bit of cash (mine is $15 a year at dnsexit.com) for a relay service. I see no-ip.com has something it calls "Alternate-port SMTP" for $20 a year which appears to be the same thing. Before I spent the cach, though, I would see if the smtp servers owned by my ISP would serve my needs. -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
