A while back I posted about Comcast blocking outgoing traffic on
port 25. We've spent some time with
Verizon's DSL service, but after our recent move we're back with
Comcast. Luckily, Comcast now explicitly lists the ports they
block. Nothing I care about, except for port 25 (incoming and
outgoing). For incoming mail, I use Dyn to forward mail to port
587. For outgoing mail, I had been using stunnel
through outgoing.verizon.net
for my SMTP connections. Comcast
takes a similar approach forcing outgoing mail through port
465 on smtp.comcast.net
.
