Almost no one is blocking 587 yet, and it is the standard. That's what I'm doing (with another port), and that's what I'm calling a hack to make it go through my home computer. The point is, not anyone can do this. Most people in this university have to use a broken SMTP for outgoing mail. And I bet that's the same for some ISPs that are blocking outgoing connexions on port 25. > I don't want to start using RBL's on my debian account, precisely > because it's their for people trying to fix broken setups, but I can see > the arguments for it.

And that only solves the problem for mail coming from other DDs. Blocking mail from other persons writing to @debian.org addresses is not acceptable. -- .''`.
