Configuring SMTP Server for SBC/AT&T DSL Users
| Problem: SBC DSL users are unable to send mail from a non-sbc email account (i.e. yourname@yourdomain.com) with a POP3 client such as Outlook or Eudora. Reason: SBC blocks all network traffic from residential customer's IP addresses going outbound on port 25 unless it is going through one of their SMTP servers. Solution: Configure your email client to use SBC's SMTP server as the outgoing (SMTP) mail server. Depending on your SBC account, you should be able to use one of the following SMTP servers (refer to your SBC documentation): These are the two most common smtp.sbcglobal.net smtp.sbcglobal.yahoo.com The following are other possible outgoing servers depending on your region smtp.ameritech.yahoo.com smtp.flash.yahoo.com smtp.nvbell.yahoo.com smtp.pacbell.yahoo.com smtpauth.prodigy.net smtp.snet.yahoo.com smtp.swbell.yahoo.com smtp.wans.yahoo.com |
