Is there ay way to get the mail on any other port insted of port 25. I tried changing the port in server>protocols>Smtp>DEfault Smtp virtual Server>Property>general>advance
But i still can not get the mail on port 26.

Please advice if that is possiable or not.

Your ISp will always use port 25.
Why do you want/need to change that? If the solution is here, let us know it was helpful so others can benefit from it as too
 
Hi Marcs

I want to use different one because port 25 is blocked from my ISP.

I'm not sure what you're trying to accomplish here, but if it's your intention to let Exchange listen for SMTP on a different port than the default 25, you need to change this in the 'services' file, somewhere in your system32\drivers\etc folder.
 
And then what?
No mailserver is sending to port 26, so it will never work.

k1009, why is the ISP blocking that? Did you ask them to open it? If the solution is here, let us know it was helpful so others can benefit from it as too
