    Default Telstra Mobile now blocking port 25 ?

    A couple of days ago i noticed emails from my mobile weren't sending via next g using my isp smpt mail server.
    If i connected via wifi at the office, no problem,
    I have been using the same app for years with no problem.
    I tried gmail, same result.....

    If i use mail.bigpond.com as the outgoing mail server, no problem, but obviously won't work at the office via wifi as i'm using a bigpond reseller for adsl.

    any solution ?

    i tried the usual alternate ports....

    I use port 465 without issue on both my private email SMTP and the Gmail SMTP over the Telstra mobile network.

    It was beagle blocking outgoing email on their server unless you're on their network......

    thanks, but i don't have a bigpond or telstra email address......

    i have been using a beagle.com.au address for 12 or 13 years.

    the problem is now i cant access their smtp server unless im on their network ie: via adsl in the office or wifi at the office via my phone.

    if i use bigpond smtp server via 4g, no problem, but then if i connect via wifi at the office, emails don't send until i reconnect via 4g.

    An annoying change by Beagle.

    Depending on your phone (iPhone confirmed, not sure others) you can set up multiple SMTP servers, and the phone will go through until then until it successfully sends. No doubt for situations such as this.
