Perhaps iptables or your kernel needs to be upgraded.

I sent this posting from another PC running RH7.3 and also using the same broadband without problem. The only difference is I am using Mozilla Mail on KDE.
How to stop the firewall of this PC (RH8.0)?

Hi Stephen,
Its may not be enough to stop the service(it should be service iptables
stop),you must flush the tables using #iptables -F
before you telnet,but bear in mind the filtering may be from your service
provider.I am almost certain its a firewall issue.

Try "telnet 66.218.86.254 25 (i.e mx4.mail.yahoo.com) you should get a
+ve
reponse if smtp is not filtered.
Hope this helps some.

Do you get a mailer-daemon back? That should give some clue.
Sorry I don't catch your question.
Did you check /var/log/maillog?

How are you sending the mail? With a GUI app?
I sent the test mail from Ximian as well as Kmail on KDE desktop
1) Ximian
(Setting -1) Tools --> Mail Settings 'Sending Mail' Authentication Type 'Password'
Clicking 'Send', following warning popup
XError gpg: skipped 'satimis@xxxxxxxxxxxx': secret key not available gpg: signing failed: secret key not available
Never asked for password
(Setting -2) Tools --> Mail Settings 'Sending Mail' Clicking 'Check for supported types' it selected 'NT Login' on the droplist 'Password' fadeout
Clicking 'Send', following popup
Xenter Password Please enter your GnuPG passphrase for
After entering 'Password' following warning popup gpg: skipped ?:malformed user id gpg: signing failed: malformed user id
2) Kmail on KDE desktop
The test-mail sent with record on 'Sent-mail' but the recipient can't receive it
Try sending from mutt, or if you are using sendmail try,
echo "Tesing my mail..." | sendmail -v someuser@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx
# echo "Testing my mail" | sendmail -v satimis@xxxxxxxxx
