Orange are also blocking one.com SMTP servers. Anyone have an idea how to resolve this as one.com don't seem to have an answer

Hi,

I have two different email accounts from two different providers to allow me to send/receive email wherever I'm connected.

BOTH have ben failing to send since Thursday - 0x800ccc0f every time.

One uses 2525, the other uses 587.

Neither provider has any answer as Orange now seem to be blocking all 3rd party email providers...

So, do I rant at 'Suresh' in Bangalore again or do I move to Virgin/BT/Other who are not blocking my emails?

I'm another Orange customer that has been having these problems accessing my Fasthosts SMTP server since Thursday. Now (within the last hour) , even when using the Orange SMTP server, my emails don't seem to be reaching their destination!

Dear all

I'm a visitor here. Not an IT guy, but someone who suffered the same problem via 123-reg.co.uk

after much phoning around, I eventually spoke ot a human being who works as a service rpovider to orange.

Port 587, and all other commonly used SMTP ports have been blocked by Orange and there is no plan to unblock them.
This is action by Orange to reduce outgoing spam mail and to secure down their system, as far as the person I spoke to is aware, and I have had several problems in the past via orange, which he has worked on and resolved quickly for me, there is no real workaround.

Its not down to different email providers, it is Orange, no-one else.

the answer is clear - use SMTP.orange or change you ISP provider.

Bob

Strange - I just spent 20 mins on the phone to Orange suppport who INSISTED that the problem was still being investigated and that they were definately NOT blocking any ports! Somehow, I'm not convinced. [censored] - elbow, anyone?

None of you have stated whether you are on LLU or non-LLU (IPStream)?

What you say has not and has never happened to me on LLU.

I have intimate knowledge of Orange support ( at one point to solve a problme they felt it necessary to close my account, meaning I lost service for 2 weeks whilst they opened a new account!) and they are devinitely the @rse as opposed to the elbpw...
