I never said that you could. I guess that would be unacceptable in every
country except in the most extenuating of circumstances.
I was talking about looking at something. How do you send (or not send,
as the case may be) email through a server if you do not look at it?
brian@desktop:~$ telnet smtp.verizon.net 25
Trying 206.46.232.100...
telnet: Unable to connect to remote host: Connection timed out
brian@desktop:~$ telnet smtp.verizon.net 465
Trying 206.46.232.100...
Connected to smtp.verizon.net.
Escape character is '^]'.
Now I know the smarthost setting in exim requires port 465.
Anything wrong with this? Is nmap more or less evil?
