SMTP port 25 on Telus Purefibre (1Gig - Residential)
 

I got Purefibre installed yesterday, but before I signed up I called Telus and asked if ports were still being blocked (as described on their website). The agent confirmed that ports are blocked only on Internet services delivered through copper.

I logged into the Telus Wifi Hub (model:PRV65B444A-S-TS) router and set it to "bridge" mode so that my router would pick up an external IP. Once I did that all ports I have services on (80, 443, 993, 587, 8448) were reachable from the internet except port 25 (outbound seems to be blocked too)

Am I missing something here or is Telus blocking that port and the agent gave the wrong information?
