Subject: [TriLUG] Port 25 blocked

Well,
    Bellsouth suckered me into upgrading to thier extreme package and
unbenknownst to me they are blocking incoming and outgoing ports 25,
139 and a few other odd ones.  I could care less about samba, but I'm more
worried about mail.
    Has anyone on the list had to work around a closed port 25, and how did
you do it.  I've already looked into MOXY since I have access to several
servers, but I don't want to create my personal accounts on these machines.
So I could switch sendmail to listen on port 26 and have a different machine
mail proxy the messages to me.
   Another thought I had was to setup some sort of mail collection server
that received *@domain.com and put it into a spool file that I pop'd into,
pulled down and fed to sendmail or procmail.
   Does anyone else have any other suggestions, what has worked best for
others?

TIA
Steve
