Port 25 moves email from one node to the next across the Internet.
It automatically takes incoming email and if the email doesn't
belong to someone with an email address on that computer, it sends
it on to the next computer on the net, eventually to wind its way to
the person to who this email belongs.

The Usenet port usually is open only to those with accounts on that
system. So you will need to telnet from your ISP shell account back
into your own ISP as follows:
Now when we are suddenly in a program that we don't know too well,

whois forgery.com
No match for "FORGERY.COM"
If you happen to get a match and still suspect a forgery, finger can
be executed from a utility like NetScan or the UNIX Shell Prompt
finger forger@forgery.com
We get:
[forger.com]
finger: forger.com: Connection timed out
There are several possible reasons for this. One is that the systems
administrator for forger.com has disabled the finger port. Another
is that forger.com is inactive. It could be on a host computer that
is turned off, or maybe just an orphan.
