Hi

i cant see the firewall issue because when i used sendmail as an MTA the
mails get through. Do we need to do some router setting in the configuration
file. As for the ip blacklisting dont have any idea.

Thanks

So you can't establish a connection to the remote servers. Is there a

firewall local to you blocking outbound connections? Is it plausible

that the IP address you're trying to connect from is on a IP blacklist

that lists machines that should never be allowed to even connect?
