Interesting.  I started hearing about port 25 being blocked last year, 
but it wasn't for me.  Then about 2 months ago, the time Thomas was 
helping, the circuit went down for a short time and when it came back 
port 25 was blocked.  I'll have to call and see if I can get that 
undone, based on this information.
