Is it worth telnetting the port to check that it supports what you think it does. For example, from several years ago: $ telnet smtp.lionunicorn.co.uk 25 ←←←←← Trying 149.255.58.10... Connected to smtp.lionunicorn.co.uk. Escape character is '^]'. 220 cloud11.unlimitedwebhosting.co.uk ESMTP ehlo me.here ←←←←← 250-cloud11.unlimitedwebhosting.co.uk 250-AUTH=LOGIN CRAM-MD5 PLAIN 250-AUTH LOGIN CRAM-MD5 PLAIN 250-STARTTLS 250-PIPELINING 250 8BITMIME ^] ←←←←← telnet> quit ←←←←← Connection closed.
