Comment:

Any time I try to send an email from my ibook g3 osx 900mhz to certain adresses it wont send to them. In Entourage it says " the server did not recognize the recipients or the server refuses to allow you to send mail". In the background there is also a message saying " the server cannot be contacted on port 25". Same sort of thing with Mac Mail. Both programs will however allow me to send to certain adresses, just not to others. I know the ones not allowed are good as I have sent to them from another computer, a PC. Both programs receive mail fine.Any help is appreciated as I am really stuck,
Cheers, Mark

Your SMTP server is most likely setup wrong, or you are
using a router which is blocking port 25. In Mail, and also
Entourage , i believe, you can set the port in which the
mail is sent out of, try setting it to 80.
