You had said client. I'm guessing their ISP isn't doing what their help
desk calls "port 25 blocking"? McAfee 8.0 has a "port blocking" feature
that may be turned on by default actually. If they are using other
anti-virus softwares, I've seen like a virtual port (for lack of a better
term) get created to send mail.

Subject: [Ethereal-users] Capture Filter on port - strange behavior
To: ethereal-users@xxxxxxxxxxxx
Message-ID: <427A495E.7020901@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1; format=flowed
Running on Windows XP SP2 with Ethereal versions
0.10.10 and WinPCap 3.0.
If I provide the following capture filter:
port 25
in order to capture an SMTP transaction, I see only
packets with destination port 25 -- I.e. I see the
the client's outgoing packets only.
However, if I capture with NO filter specified, I see
all packets, so I know WinPCap is capturing all the
traffic.
I also tried
src port 25 || dst port 25
but the results were the same. This used to work
just fine. Has something changed or am I missing
something?
I also tried Ethereal 0.10.9 and WinPCap 3.1beta4 with
the same results.
