Windows Hosting - SMTP Port Change
==================================


This notice applies ONLY to windows hosted customers
(NOT LINUX), who use our SMTP servers to send email.
If you do NOT use our SMTP you should not make any changes.

In an effort to minimise both spam and email attacks on
the windows SMTP servers, we request that you switch your
SMTP port to 2525 (instead of the default 25) with immediate
effect.

Instructions for changing to port 2525 on Outlook 2003 can
be found below:

Use the Test Account Settings button to verify that the
account is working properly. If any step fails please double
check the settings and verify your password is correct then
try again. Once the test has completed properly, close the
results window using the 'Close' button, then click 'Next >'
and finally 'Finish'

That's it! You have successfully reconfigured your email
account to use port 2525 for SMTP.
