SBC Information

SBC Internet Services (SBCIS) has taken steps to help combat junk email and spam. SBCIS has implemented outbound email SMTP port controls to ensure that its network is as reliable as possible for their members.
 

In September 2004, SBCIS began filtering direct outgoing email connections using Port 25 (SMTP) to non-SBCIS/Yahoo mail servers from Members using dynamic DSL and Dialup connections. Port 25 filters are widely used by many ISPs to combat junk email and spam from mis-configured and virus-infected computers.

SBCIS Members using SBCIS or Yahoo! mail servers for outgoing email are not impacted by this filter. Incoming email connections are also not affected. If you wish to continue use the SBCIS servers and your SBCIS email address you would then use the SBCIS send mail server


A SBCIS member using a private company, university or hosting provider mail server will not be able to send outgoing email from dynamic DSL and Dialup connections until the filter is removed. To request removal of the filter, use the Abuse of Service form at  http://help.sbcglobal.net/servabuse.php to contact our Abuse team and choose the "Opt-Out Port 25" under Abuse Type. Enter your account Member ID (also called your SBCIS PPPOE Login ID or User ID) to opt-out. If you have multiple SBCIS accounts you want to opt-out, please submit a separate form for each Member ID. Do not enter your email addresses from the other mail hosting provider. You should expect that it will take SBCIS 12-24 hours to process your request.

After receiving a confirmation email, sent to the SBCIS Member account ID being opted-out, you will need to logoff the SBCIS network and turn off your DSL router or modem for 1 minute to remove the filter. You should then turn your modem and system back on and log in using the normal procedure.
