Hi Kristofer

I have to pop out for a few hours I will follow the
article when I get back, I have also emailed my ISP to ask
whether port 25 has been blocked by them.

My first tought that I may have blocked port 25 at some
point, but I wouldn't actually know how I would have done
it! I've been looking all over the place for points where
I could have done it and they all seem open.

Thanks for your help.
Toby
