My client has been unable to send mail since Wed. So, I come in and try a simple telnet session:

Code: 
gregory$ telnet 41.213.80.12 25
Trying 41.213.80.12...
Connected to smtp.wbs.co.za.
Escape character is '^]'.
550 Rejected host IP address:  SPAM_YAHOO_AOL
Connection closed by foreign host.
gregory$

any suggestions? Support desk seems unable to answer my questions and tell me it is an Outlook 2010 issue. (DUH!)
 
Here's some more info - maybe this will shed light on things. My client is a second-tier iBurst client: they in fact have a direct relationship with MWEB. Mweb bills and manages this connection. If I replace their UTD with mine, alter the u/p for PPPoE, and BANG! connects, smtp works (at Telnet level anyway), no problems.

So, did mweb break something (just like that) or change something?

Connected several times and got different ip addresses. they're not on a static. seems it is the whole mweb range. Two of them were:

196.2.126.175
41.56.57.220

According to Afrinic, both of those IP addresses belong to WBS.

Why not just configure them to use Google's secure SMTP and be done with it?

Not yet...

I have been informed that the user/pass was disallowed from sending because they were sending spam. The follow supposedly originated from my client:

There setup is crazy: MSE2003 server with local addresses and remote retrieval of these. All mail gets sent by the MSE2003 server. So, how to make that thing use Google and to sign them up is a new challenge.
