Opening SMTP Ports

For security reasons, outgoing TCP ports (25, 465, and 587) are blocked by default on all VPS servers. This measure aims to prevent spam distribution. To lift the block, follow these steps:

  1. Register your domain zone. The A-record for your domain must point to your server’s IP address.
  2. Submit a request to technical support specifying that you need to open outgoing SMTP ports for sending email and the domain (or subdomain) from which it will be sent.
  3. After analyzing your domain name, we will make a decision on opening the SMTP ports and notify you.
Attention

Opening SMTP ports may require additional details about your domain name and its intended use.
