Re: port 25 on windows XP

Does the client talk to the server if both are on the same PC?

  if ( ( run on different machines && doesn't work ) &&
       ( run on same machine && works ) )
  {
      suspect firewall;
      exit;
  }

  if ( ( run on same machine && port != 25 && works ) &&
       ( run on same machine && port == 25 && ! works ) )
  {
      suspect internal firewall;
      exit;
  }

Either way I think the problem is an XP one, not a Perl one..

Very sound reasoning that this is not a Perl question. That's the only bright spot of this answer ;-)	[reply]
