did you received an advisory coming from PLDT? see this thread, they reset all the password to default. See http://www.philmug.ph/forum/showthread.php?p=750408

As @Doddie says, everyone has the same password.

MyDSL mail is the worst! All I get is spam. My legit mail gets blocked and the “lin-tech” support are clueless. Now they’ve gone and changed mail servers (I think this is the right term), reset passwords and didn’t bother to tell us where we could change the passwords… now everyone has the same password.

Sux!

nakakatawa ka naman… i’m an online marketer, I depend on email.. every email for me is important… the fucking problem is I can directly reply to my clients using OE, I need to login to my cpanel hosting just to reply… Do this every everytime you received an email, how do you feel?

ang nakakatawa pa walang kaalam alam ang ibang tech support…

this relay server most probably has spam filter.

if you hate PLDT that you mock us happy subscribers, then why don’t you have your connection terminated and shift to other providers? good luck if you’ll experience a problem free service.

just for the port 25 you blabber this much.

main reason why PLDT blocked the SMTP port is because of spams from infected PCs connected to the network. many users don’t shut down their PCs and don’t know that their PCs are sending unsolicited mails due to virus infection.
Alot of PLDT’s IP blocks/ranges are blocked by spam protection sites like SPAMCop before this was implemented.
Kudos to PLDT for doing this! we should be happy for this that atleast less spams are sent, we have a faster internet connection due to less junk and valid mails are really delivered.
Another thing, atleast PLDT didn’t left us hanging and set-up this server to send mails.

The problem is on your incoming mail server. Use the incoming mail server provided by your hosting company or your mail provider not the smtp mail server provided by pldt unless you are using pldt email address.

**If you are using gmail account, you can use smtp.gmail.com.
