sbc blocks port 25

SBC, who recently resurrected Lily Tomlin's Operator ("We're the Phone Company sir, we can do anything...") to be their CEO, replacing Da Mayor's supposedly smarter brother, is now blocking port 25. They started doing it without warning or notification. If your an SBC/Yahoo DSL customer and you've set up your outgoing mail to use your work, school or an authenicating email server you may not be able to send mail. They're not blocking their own servers yet.

This will really screw up mobile users, and internet cafes who use SBC (i can name 3 off the top of my head).
