Windows version?
MTU settings are changed in the Registry. See:
Outlook or Outlook Express hangs after you send an e-mail message... http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=315008
"NOTE: If the issue continues to occur, repeat the preceding steps, but type a different MTU value between 1,454 and 576. When you test additional MTU values, try 576 and then increase the number to 600. If setting the MTU value to 600 does not resolve the issue, increase the value by 100 until you reach 1,400. If the issue continues to occur, try 1,454 and then stop. When you are finished, if the issue is still not resolved, change the MTU value back to 576."
But before you go messing with MTU, try Disabling email scanning by your anti-virus application. It provides no additional protection and even Symantec says it's not necessary:
<paste>
Disabling Email Scanning does not leave you unprotected against viruses that are distributed as email attachments. Norton AntiVirus Auto-Protect scans incoming files as they are saved to your hard drive, including email and email attachments. Email Scanning is just another layer on top of this. To make sure that Auto-Protect is providing the maximum protection, keep Auto-Protect enabled and run LiveUpdate regularly to ensure that you have the most recent virus definitions.

Hi - when I'm connected via my Microsoft MN-700 router, I can recieve
emails, but not send them (unless they're short text only messages). When
I'm not using the router everything is fine. No idea what's causing this.
Searched on google and found people talking about chinging their MTU
settings, but I can't do that with this router. Also heard talk about
"port 25" but have no idea how to cahnge that.
