Damn spammers.

Okay, I hate spammers.

I really hate spammers more now, if possible.

SBC (my DSL provider) has now blocked port 25 access, which is how I send mail out of an ISP account that I still use and also my estirose.net accounts. I have two options: 1) set all of my smtp to go out of SBC's servers, or 2) jump through the hoops to get SBC to unblock port 25 on my account.

I am a tad bit irritated at SBC for putting the port 25 block on my account, even more annoyed that they didn't announce it, but I hate the spammers that made it necessary for them to do it even more.

ETA: And there's no intelligent life at SBC. I've just confirmed it.

Like talking to a brick wall, I take it? They can't grasp that the port blocking has effectively blocked your e-mail?
