Help needed in re-directing ports 80and 25

[usalabs3]

I would like to run an email server and a web server, but my isp is blocking port 80 inbound, and port 25 inbound and outbound, is there a way that I could redirect port 25 requests to another port? and also how do I redirect port 80 inbound requests to another port?, so that when someone types in my web address using port 80, the request gets redirected to another port, then that port then directs the outgoing back to port 80, so that the user can access the website. outgoing on port 80 in no problem.

I got the test email, thanks for checking it out for me, I coudn't really do much from this computer (except nslookup, and running a dns query program) as it's on a network at home.

Believe it or not, earlier, I deleted all the entries in the zone file, and started again, this time it worked, now I don't need an open relay.

Always a pleasure

I forgot to add 1 thing, my webmail interface, the graphics are shot, I've tried uninstalling-then re-installing, I even un-installed, then completely removed the program folder from program files, then installed again, I don't know if it's something at this end, but if someone could check it out at

http://webmail.tezandbabs.us

it'll be much appreciated, a screenshot of the web interface is at

I know it shouldn't look like that, the same happens when I use localhost to access it.

that all takes care of the incoming, now I've got to find a way to allow outgoing on smtp

 

[ChrisAC]

I can't get to webmail.tezandbabs.us. Page cannot be displayed. Is there any forwarding set up for webmail?

http://www works

just fine.

I just checked the forwarding, and (duh!) I forgot to add the forward, the link should be ok, now.

 

[ChrisAC]

That works now. I see exactly what's on your screen shot.

Any ideas on how the email account holders can send email via the webmail interface using outgoing smtp? (my ISP blocks inbound/outbound port 25) because the rollernet service only has incoming smtp redirection.

 

[ChrisAC]

Doesn't your ISP provide an SMTP relay server at all? If not then your only option would be to find an external relay server that would accept connections on a different port. How does your ISP expect you to be able to send email?

my ISP will only allow smtp out to their own server, which in turn will send it on its way. I tried to use their servers as a relay, but I get the email back saying 'relaying not allowed'.

The screen shot you saw, only happens when you try this, go here first (my website)

http://www.tezandbabs.us,

then click on the link 'To retrieve emails or create a new email account, using webmail', then you'll see what happens, but if you go to the

http://www address,

then delete your cookies, then click on the link, it works fine, I don't know why it does this.

 

[ChrisAC]

You should ask your ISP why you are getting a ''relaying not allowed' message. Maybe you need yo use SMTP authentication on thier service. I presume that you can send email okay from a normal mail client (eg OE)?

I can't get to your site at the moment to try that.

Nevermind once again...i got that part fixed...I didn't register any departments. Now i just have the redirect problem.

ChrisAC.....

I fixed the problem of the webmail interface being scrambled, I found it to be the cookies that my website and the webmail interface uses, both try to use the 'lang' cookie, so by inserting 'unset ($lang,$callang);' into the include file as the second line, the webmail interface works fine now.
