Re: sending mail throw command line

Maybe your firewall just drops the packets (typical behavior of a DROP
target in netfilter) instead of rejecting your connection ?
Do you obtain the same behavior on other ports (if 25/tcp is dropped,
your netadmin may have configure some restrictive firewall and might
drop everything) ?

can I fix it?

Maybe there is some transparent firewall that pretends to accept the
TCP connection or maybe some telnet magic is the culprit. Try to use
netcat...

another question. can someone please tell me how can I send an
attachment throw command line? I remmber I read somewhere thats its
possible. but I dont remmeber where I read it.
