it does not work. i may try to send a mail with the server set to -
smtp.mailserver.org:25 - which does not work. so, the mail stands in the
outbox but can't be sent. now, if i remove the port number the mails can
be sent.
yes, i'm very sure the port number i specify has a smtp server running
on it. as i said, try it yourself with the port 25. i'm still able to
send my mails specifying the port number with evo-1.4. 

maybe the bug is not just in that but in combination with ssl. i use ssl
only.
