All my other machines on the network (Win2000, Me, 98, etc) can send email
via SMTP port 2525 just fine. But my XP Home laptop cannot send mail via
port 2525. Port 25 works fine.

Is it something with the XP built-in firewall? I've turned it off and added
an SMTP exception for port 2525 but with no luck still. I haven't rebooted,
so maybe that's it.

Any other ideas why this one machine wouldn't send mail via port 2525?
Thanks!

I don't know, but I get my mail via port 2525 on WinXP without a problem.
Using WinXP SP2 firewall with no special configuration.
