From: Tom Willett on 20 May 2010 15:08 a. You may be using the Incorrect SMTP settings. b. Your firewall software is blocking your e-mail client or the port for outgoing messages (Port 25) is being blocked by your security software. c. Your router has a firmware setting to block certain communication ports (specifically port 25). d. Your ISP has blocked access to port 25. e. Your ISP may require using port 587 instead of port 25.

Did you wait a day to see if the service outage got corrected? What did AOL say when you contacted them? When I ran "telnet 205.188.186.167 25", I got the following: 220-mtaout-db01.r1000.mx.aol.com ESMTP MUA/Third Party Client Interface 220-AOL and its affiliated companies do not 220-authorize the use of its proprietary computers and computer 220-networks to accept, transmit, or distribute unsolicited bulk 220-e-mail sent from the internet. 220-Effective immediately: 220-AOL may no longer accept connections from IP addresses 220 which no reverse-DNS (PTR record) assigned. I could not enter the USER command to authenticate and start a mail session (the server spewed back "502 5.5.2 Error: command not recognized") so the above was an informational message and their server was not accepting connections. My IP address does have a reverse DNS lookup but that AOL server isn't accepting connections. So I tried port 587 instead of 25 but that the above same info report and no connect. Guess you'll just have to wait out their service outage or contact AOL about their problem. |
