Iptables - incomming port to external port - possible?


My school here blocks port 25 so i'm unable to send email using my isp's smtp when i'm here. I was wondering if it's possible to foward an incomming port say 3333 to my isp port 25 as a backroute using my linuxbox?

Is your linux machine outside the school's network? If so, I'd look into setting up an SSH tunnel, rather than using any sort of iptables forwarding, which is unlikely to work.
