Well along the same lines instead of changing the port you can just disable the outgoing email record in the email configuration form, but please remember to restart the email engine after you disable it to make the changes take place. Then when you are done enabled it and restart the email engine again.

Mails can't get out, and you can examine them all in AR System Email Messages. You'll need an escalation to delete the old ones after you test and before you change the port back to 25.... Doug .....
