    hi,

    got one of the new 3g modems and am having problems using my usual smtp server. It seems that they have either blocked port 25 or there is something funny going on. In thunderbird I get this error:

    "An error has occured, while sending this mail. The mail server responded:
    http://www.spamhaus.org/query/bl?ip=XXX.MY.IPADD.
    Please check the message recipients and try again."

    Because 3 are proxing via a small number of UK IPs. the IP is spam blocked. You effectively can only use 3's SMTP

    Got it unblocked by following some of the instructions on the link. However, reckon when I go to check my mail again it will happen.
    What is the address for 3's smtp server, could not find it on the website?
    Thanks for the info..
