Is your mail server 128.123.3.5? Looks like I can't get to it from home; I'm on one of these netblocks that are marked as dynamic IPs although it also serves static IP addresses such as myself. I can send UDP DNS queries and get replies to/from it just fine though, so it's likely not a routing issue but indeed a filtering issue. Conventional wisdom says that the problem is either at your end or somewhere in Time Warner, and possibly because your mail server is also a DNS server. Setup a machine that listens on 25 on another IP on the same subnet, and let me know the IP, I'll give it another shot. Michel.
