Welcome to LQ.

Have you confirmed that your ISP is not blocking incomming port 25?

I asked them and they tell me they don't block port 25. I tried sendmail also. I get the same problem.????

Thanks for any help you could give.

1) Ask your ISP.
2) When you know that your smtp server is working ask a friend to try connecting to port 35 on your system.
