And they don't use port 25.
Your post brings up a great question. Is it time for Email systems to be updated, changed to something that doesn't require folk to check their settings?

I suddenly can't send out any emails in my Windows Live Mail. I am still receiving however. Verizon is my provider. I have Windows 8. Any emails I create go to the outbox and stay there. When I try to send I get this message:
An unknown error has occurred.
Server: 'outgoing.verizon.net'
Windows Live Mail Error ID: 0x80004005
Protocol: SMTP
Port: 25
Secure(SSL): No
I now have 47 stuck there.
