Sounds like you have your outbound SMTP settings incorrect. I've never seen an ISP have their customers connect to the mail server on port 25. Port 25 is used for public e-mail across the internet. Usually the e-mail clients their customers use will connect to a different port. You better read the help information to get the proper settings for that provider. This is on every outbound e-mail you try to send correct? And, this is an error while performing the send/receive, as opposed to an actual returned mail error received later on?
