Re: [EP-tech] eprints integration with office365 SMTP


Hi Enio, Thanks for the reply. Yes port 25 is open

 netstat -napt | grep 127.0.0.1:25 doesn't find the pattern, but
netstat -napt | grep 0.0.0.0:25 returns the following output:

tcp        0      0 0.0.0.0:25              0.0.0.0:*
LISTEN      106776/smtpd

Also, I'm able to telnet to port 25:

telnet 127.0.0.1 25
Trying 127.0.0.1...
Connected to 127.0.0.1.
Escape character is '^]'.
220 localhost ESMTP Postfix

Best regards, Francis
