The port was historically used for the <strong>Simple Mail Transfer Protocol<\/strong> (SMTP) relay between mail servers (i.e. sending emails), which is usually not encrypted.<\/p>\n<div class=\"bq2\"><strong>NOTE:<\/strong> Spammers often try to exploit port 25 due to lack of required authentication and encryption, allowing them to abuse misconfigured servers (open relays) etc.<\/div>\n<p>However, these days it&#8217;s more common for email servers and systems to use <strong>Port 465<\/strong> (legacy SMTPS), <strong>Port 587<\/strong> (submission) or <strong>Port 2525<\/strong> for the secure variants of SMTP (SMTPS etc.), which will usually be encrypted using the SSL\/TLS standards or similar methods.<\/p>\n<p>Suffice to say that customers of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/go\/youfibre\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">YouFibre<\/a> shouldn&#8217;t be too alarmed after the ISP emailed them this week to inform of the impending change (credits to one of our readers, Joe, for the tip), although there&#8217;s always some risk from the unintended consequences of such moves (i.e. the possibility of catching niche use cases, which may make different uses of the same port). The fact that there&#8217;s only been a few days notice given is another issue.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"bq1\"><p><span style=\"color: #339966;\"><strong>Copy of You Fibre&#8217;s Email<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p>We are doing a security update on the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/go\/youfibre\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">YouFibre<\/a> network<\/p>\n<p><strong>Dear XXXXXX,<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>As part of our regular updates to the security of our network, we are implementing a new security measure &#8211; the blocking of Port 25 (SMTP).<\/p>\n<p>This change will take effect on Friday 16 January, 2026.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Why are we doing this?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Port 25 is traditionally used for sending emails via the Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP). Unfortunately, it is also commonly exploited by spammers and malicious actors to send spam and phishing emails, often from compromised computers within our network. By blocking Port 25, we will reduce Spam and Phishing Attacks.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What you need to know<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Although this change won\u2019t impact most of our users, those using Gmail, Outlook or other web based email will be unaffected, it may impact some of our customers, particularly those who operate their own mail servers or use email applications configured to send emails via Port 25.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Here is what you need to know:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\">1. Email Delivery via Port 25: If you are using an email client or service that relies on Port 25 to send emails, you will need to reconfigure it to use an alternative port. Common alternatives include Port 587 or Port 465, which are typically used for secure, authenticated email submission.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\">2. Support and Assistance: If you need help reconfiguring your email client or server, please contact your email provider.<\/p>\n<p><strong>How to change your email port settings<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>To avoid disruption in your email service, please follow these steps to change your port settings:<\/p>\n<p>1. Open your email client settings.<br \/>\n2. Locate the outgoing server (SMTP) settings.<br \/>\n3. Change the port number from 25 to 587 or 465.<br \/>\n4. Ensure the &#8220;<em>Use secure connection (SSL\/TLS)<\/em>&#8221; option is enabled.<\/p>\n<p>For more information see our help article: Why Can\u2019t I Send Emails on My Connection?<\/p>\n<p>We believe this change will significantly enhance the security and efficiency of our network.
