thanks for your very clear answer
aol france just sent me the confirmation (they didn't answer at the
begining, just saying 'that's not our pb, we don't stop or redirect any
ports, see with your smtp admin'!!!)
so, could I configure the smtp port to something else (26? :-), because some
of my customers use aol too, and got the same pb.
so, if the port is set too something else, it could solve the pb with aol,
just an other configuration to set in the mailer clients...
no?
