Unblocking Port 25
Operation Scenarios
To improve email sending on Tencent Cloud IP addresses and for security reasons, access to the external TCP port 25 from Cloud Virtual Machine (CVM) instances is blocked by default. If your business scenario requires access to TCP port 25 from CVM instances (such as building email services), you can see this document for instructions to apply for unblocking the port.
Notes
It only supports unblocking of prepaid annual or monthly CVMs and currently does not support CVMs operating on a pay-as-you-go basis.
Make sure that you only use port 25 to connect to a third-party SMTP server for sending email. If you use your CVMs to send email directly, we reserve the right to permanently ban you from opening port 25.
It is recommended to prioritize the use of other ports for sending emails. For configuration guidance, see Sending Emails via Port 465.
