config SMTP : doesn't work with my smtp.loriaux.com

[eric_loriaux]

I'm trying to use Eudora to read and answer my emails for mailbox webmaster@loriaux.com
So far, reading emails using pop3 server is ok, but I have a problem when trying to send an email although I've followed the guide as http://guides.ovh.com/EmailConfigurationEudora
I have a doubt : am I allowed to use smtp.loriaux.com as SMTP server or will the server reject the connection because I'm not connected with an IP adresse of OVH ?


Error message is :
<Dominant>, Connecting to the Mail Server... [08:34:49 AM]
Error reading from network Cause: connection aborted due to timeout or other failure (10053)

Config for Eudora is (refer to http://guides.ovh.com/EmailConfigurationEudora) :

Real name :
Eric Loriaux

Email address :
webmaster@loriaux.com

Mail server (incoming) :
pop3.loriaux.com

User name :
webmaster%loriaux.com

SMTP Server (Outgoing) :
smtp.loriaux.com

As in the guide, the Allow_authentication is not checked.

Your internet provider has blocked port number 25 for SMTP outgoing e-mails. They try to force you to use their own smtp server to control spam, thus detering you from connecting to smtp.loriaux.com.
The solution is simple: tell Eudora to connect to your smtp server through port numer 587 or 5025.
