Check a posting I have further down the board regarding
the SMTP problems we are having. Basically our ISP,
Adelphia has blocked ports 135-139 on their servers. Not
allowing SMTP to come through. Hence, not allowing the MX
record to be forwarded to any static IPs on the SBS
servers..Adelphia is telling us that more and more ISP's
are starting to do that because of the worm..
