Hi!
Some providers block port 25 as a way to fight spam from botnets within.
You might think of port 25 as for communications between mailservers.
Port 587 is the correct port for mail submission from clients.
This is best solved by configuring your mailservers for mailsubmission 
for authenticated clients on port 587.

Regards,
  from Lars

And all the best to Julian.
